i read this book when i was younger, and i liked it so much that i reread it again. it's a cute story about a girl, maggie, who doesn't want to learn cursive. her teacher lets her not learn cursive and appoints her offical class mail messenger. knowing that maggie is very snoppy and will want to read all the mail she delivers, the teacher writes the messages in cursive. then maggie begins to think that some of the mail is about her! now if she wants to find out what everyone is saying about her, she will need to learn cursive. will maggie learn, or will she never know what is being written. a cute story and nice lesson about not giving up just because the task proves a bit difficult.Read full review...

Great book

Arrived as described. Thanks!

One of Beverly Cleary's best!

Great story to prepare students for cursive writing! Many of my second grade students feel like Maggie does- that cursive is something that they don't need to learn. But once they, like Maggie, realize they can't read cursive and are left "out of the loop" (pun intended), they want to know the secret! A great Cleary classic!Read full review...
