Once upon a bicycle, so they say
The Jolly Postman came one day . . .

Join the Jolly Postman on his rounds as he delivers cards and letters to various fairy-tale characters. He has a letter of apology for the three bears from Goldilocks, a postcard from Jack for the giant, a solicitor’s letter on behalf of Little Red Riding-Hood for the wolf who ate grandma, and more! Learn about the cultural importance of tea in Britain.
