Letterbox Lil

by Jim Helmore, Karen Wall (Illustrator)

Letterbox Lil is a very nosy little girl, who likes to peek at all the strange people in her neighbourhood - from Long-Legged Peter, a sly Spider-Eater to the decidedly dotty Professor Biscotti. But Lil isn't the only one playing I-Spy, and one day she gets a shock that persuades her to give
up letterbox peeking for good.

A darkly funny and truly unique picture book with a surprise ending.

Peeping in letterboxes to see how her neighbor's lived gave Lil a thrill, that was until she peeped in the wrong letterbox and what she cured her of her noisy habit.

This is a story of a little girl who used to peep through her neighbors letterbox and spy on them. She is horrified one day when she thinks she sees a monster and decides never spy again. The scary thing she saw was not a monster at all it was really a cat. This is a cute story that teaches children that they shouldn't spy.

Plucky girl, fun drawings, goofy monsters - delightful!
