One day the arts council asked me to read a story at the Chicken and Eggs Festival that would be held in a small town that I lived in. I asked them if I could just write a short story to read to the children instead. So this is how the story of about a mail on a farm started! I started on the story one night. I thought about how unhappy some of my customers were when they didnt get any mail. Then I thought about how happy my son was when I would read animal stories to him. The combination of the two inspired me to write this story!
