Anyway...
The Little Mailman of Bayberry Lane.....
is a sweet story about Mrs. Pig who never receives any mail. All the other folks who live on Bayberry Lane receive mail regularly. The little mailman worries about this and decides he knows how to fix it. He sits down and invites all the neighbors who live on Bayberry Lane to Mrs. Pig's home for a little get together.
Mrs. Pig waits patiently by her mailbox but the Little Mailman just passes by her mailbox..he delivers to Mrs. Duck and leaves tulip bulbs for Mr. Turtle
Mrs. Pig was a wonderful baker and always baked on Fridays... the Little Mailman decides that he should invite the neighborhood to a little party at Mrs. Pig's house...on a Friday to enjoy her baking. This would be a wonderful way for Mrs Pig to make new friends
Mrs Pig is so excited to see all the neighbors
and they enjoy a game of croquet
the next day Mrs. Pig receives several thank you notes from her neighbors! And she continues to receive mail now from her new friends!!
Mission accomplished by the Little Mailman of Bayberry Lane..he was one busy mailman, delivering mail to all the neighbors on Bayberry Lane!

Oh how I enjoyed this book at my Aunts when we played school growing up this one always stuck with me.
ReplyDeleteThis was one of my favorite books. I passed it along to my kids and just found it in the basement. Thinking that I would give it to my grandkids, I started to read it, but the dust made me sneeze. Thought I would get a new copy on Amazon where it sells for $152.00!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI loved this as a child. I had it in my possession for years, but I don't know if I still do. Gonna look through my boxes of children's books...
