Traveling with kids

Felix is a little Rabbit who gets lost from his owner, and then travels around the world, mailing letters and postcards back home, untill he finally returns home himself on Christmas Eve.Our world of today has become quite small because of all the travelling we do, but this can be difficult for a child to understand. Felix is a good helper here. Through his travel letters he tells in a fun and friendly way about the adventures he meets. And his stories are a good start to tell children about our adventurous world. Use an atlas or a map book when you read for your child, and you can have a good conversation about our huge world. We travel alot, so my 6 years old Marta has been to several of the places mentioned in the book. And I have been to some more and can tell about my travelling. The book Letters from Felix is more than a book actually. It also contains all the letters sent home by Felix, so we can open them and read them - over and over again. And it also contains small souvenirs from the places Felix visited.Lately I have heard about a little doll named Flat Stanley. He, like Felix, travels around the world, actually he spent Christmas with us here in Norway, and with our relatives on Iceland this winter. I don't have the Flat Stanley book, but I'm thinking of sending a small Felix around the world, a Felix who can write back to my little daughter about the places he visits.Letters from Felix is a wonderful book teaching your kids about travelling and about different cultures. We love the book here in our house, and also has a huge Felix who spends every night in my daughters bed.Britt Arnhild Lindland

THIS TEACHER APPROVES!!!

I am a second grade teacher who absolutely loves this book. The children enjoy reading this book as much as I do! Their eyes widen as each letter and little surprise is taken out of each envelope! The children were quite inspired by this series that they have created their own Felix-type of books. What a great concept! Read all of the Felix and Jolly Postman books...they are well worth it!

This book is great!

This book is about a girl name Sophie who lost her rabbit. Then the rabbit (Filix) travels back home to her! This book is neat and full with cool envelopes to open and have something about history! Great book!

A Book for ALL Ages!

I received this book as a shower gift for my son (now 3 1/2 years old). We've been reading it for over 3 years and it's still as exciting as the first time. As a new teacher, I read it to my 1st grade class. They were absolutely thrilled to turn each page -- anxious to read the next letter from Felix. A truly exciting book!

Great Beginning Geography!

My kids and I love this book! The story revolves around a little girl who lost her stuffed rabbit, and he explores the world on his way back to her. The letters in the envelopes are fun for the kids to open, and the pictures are fantastic! I read this to my daughter when she was 3 years old, and now her 3rd grade teacher borrowed it to read to the class. It's a good book for a wide variety of ages, even Mommy enjoyed it! THIS one will become a family keepsake......
