A Letter for Leo

I like the illustrations.  They’re kind of soft pastel colors, and there’s something rather friendly about them.  The story is okay, too: Leo is a postal carrier (who looks like he might be a weasel or something)who longs to receive a letter himself; when he finds a baby bird who seems to have lost his flock, Leo takes him in for the winter, and after the little bird grows big enough to fly off in the spring, he sends Leo a letter.  It’s not bad.  I just couldn’t quite say I got excited about it enough to give it an actual recommendation.
