Our most recent Letter for Kids comes from Holly Schindler, and over at her website, Schindler shares her thoughts on the program:
Does anything in this world feel quite as special or personal as an actual physical letter arriving in the mail? I’m a big fan of the handwritten, of stationery and funky pens. Of Christmas cards and thank-you notes that require a stamp instead of an “@” to arrive at the intended destination.
So of course I love this program. [Letters for Kids] allows your young reader (or your entire classroom of young readers, if you’ve got one of those) to get letters straight from MG / YA authors. Sometimes the letters are illustrated or handwritten; often, they come with a return address so you can reply to the author. (Becoming pen pals with an author! How cool is that?)
