In this carefully planned reference book, interesting and accurate information is given about the Postal Service, it's history and it's development to meet present day needs.
Even children whose reading experience is limited will be encouraged by the superb, full-colour illustrations and relatively simple text to find out for themselves about this vital service, and at the same time gain extra reading practice.
