The moment your child finds mail with their name on it
Every week, a real illustrated postcard arrives in the mailbox — and your child is the hero of the story. One big adventure they collect, chapter by chapter, and read again at bedtime.
And in the story, they're the hero.
No credit card · then, if you love the adventure: the cards by mail for $14.99/month, delivery included in Canada.

Here's what arrives in their mailbox
The real format: a 6 × 9 in (15 × 23 cm) illustrated postcard. On the front, the picture and the start of the chapter; on the back, the rest of the story, their name and address.
Every story helps feed a child
