Editor's Notes and Comments:
Product Description:
What do you do when you miss someone every day? If you live in the eloquently magical world of Simms Taback, you wrap yourself in paper, close yourself up in a box (don’t forget the air holes!) and mail yourself to the one you love. From the creator of the Caldecott Medal-winning Joseph Had a Little Overcoat comes this tale about what a little girl will do to reach the person she just can’t live without. Filled with Taback’s signature vibrant colors and dynamic characters, with a lyrical text that’s as silly as it is moving, this gesture of love will resonate with anyone who’s ever missed someone.

Rated by buyers -
This story was recommended by children's literature specialist Judy Freeman. I used this book for my second grade literacy groups. They wrote letters as with the little girl in the story to someone they miss everyday. The illustrations are bright and humorous as this little girl goes through the processes of mailing herself to her special someone. The story never tells who she is going to see and it was fun doing predictions with the second graders imagining where she might be going and who she was going to see. It led to many discussions and story sharing!
