My first picture book has published! LETTERS TO SANTA celebrates the 100th anniversary of the USPS “Letters to Santa” program. I spotted the book on display at my post office yesterday!
Letters to Santa is a great program, with USPS working with charities, companies, and individual citizens across the country in various ways to field those adorable letters addressed to “Santa Claus, North Pole.” I’m so proud to be a part of the program’s centennial celebration.
Pauline Siewert created darling, kid-friendly illustrations, and the publishing team put together a package complete with a pop-up finale and stationary and stickers so that kids can write their own letters to Santa. It’s a fun book, exclusively available through the USPS.
Omigosh… First of all, HUGE congrats on your picture book! And what a neat program! I LOVE the cover! And the stationary kit included is GREAT! What a fun idea! Looks like I may have to pick up more than one copy! 🙂
Thanks, Maria. It was fun spotting the book on display. Makes the trip to the post office during Christmas season much more pleasant!
