KIRKUS REVIEW
There was nothing little Ben Stone liked better than running along the country road to meet the mailman. Everyday he came with letters for everyone, everyone, that is, except little Ben Stone. How he wanted a letter of his very own. A storm and a road block get him his wish -- not one, but four letters and all for little Ben Stone. Large, clear print, bright illustrations by Leonard Shortail, and the understanding treatment of a very real situation, make this posthumous book of Jerrold Beim's a good choice for the easy reading level.
