About book

The Little Postcard’s Big Wish is a magical story about dreams, transformation, and the power of a simple postcard to bring joy.

The story follows a little piece of paper who longs to become something special. When his wish comes true and he turns into a postcard, he discovers that the greatest happiness is making someone smile.

Now your child can become part of this story.

With the included Kit, your child steps into the role of co-author: they write a postcard from the perspective of the main character, help it complete its journey, and send it to a real person: grandmother, friend, or loved one.

This beautiful combination of story and activity helps children develop creativity, empathy, and the joy of meaningful communication.

What Your Child Will Develop:


  • Creativity & Imagination — continues the story in their own words
  • Empathy — thinks about the feelings of the person receiving the postcard
  • Writing Skills — practices writing from another character’s perspective
  • Emotional Connection — strengthens bonds with grandparents and family
  • Sense of Purpose — sees that their words can make a real difference

Includes

  • The Little Postcard’s Big Wish hardcover book
  • Special “Living Postcard” (for continuing the story)
