Tortoise Brings the Mail

This is a lovely book that I would recomend to anyone with small children. The story is a simple one, about a tortoise who delivers the mail throughout the forest, but the animals begin to get impatient with him and wish to have faster service. The Tortoise only wants what is best for the animals, so he agrees to let another animal take the job. After several animals do the job in a sloppy and careless mannor, the animals of the forest ask Tortoise to deliver their mail again. It gives you a chance to talk to your child about patience, kindness and forgiveness. A fantastic choice for any child!
