Book Description
Following on from the original "Jolly Postman", this book contains six envelopes with surprising communications for the reader, the postman and characters from children's literature. The Jolly Postman has a magical adventure in which he suffers Alice's fate and shrinks to the size of a postage stamp and meets lots of well-known characters before he is restored to his correct size and left wondering whether it was all a dream.
