ren's Book Awards and the 2017 International Latino Book Awards. The Lonely Mailman is a touching story of friendship and love that will delight readers and letter writers of all ages as they learn that many times the most wonderful things are found where we least imagine.Every day, an old mailman rides his bicycle through the forest delivering letters to the local animals. The animals are always eager to find out what message the mailman will deliver each day and are delighted when they arrive.The letters seem magical, as they always help resolve misunderstandings, exchange invitations to
dinner or tea, and form friendships.What nobody knows is that every night the dedicated postman writes each letter one by one, thinking carefully about what to write and who it will be addressed to. In fact, he is the only one who has no correspondence. Until one day he receives a very special letter in his mailbox.
