" The Lonely Mailman makes us reflect on how important it is to take care of the needs of each other, so that we can coexist peacefully and satisfactorily in the world, in the space we share. A picture book to talk about generosity, affection, the importance of living serenely to enjoy life while recognizing the limits of one's freedom and the freedom of others." --Literatura Respetuosa, "(...) Isern's cute-and-fuzzy story includes the text of the letters, which are full of invitations, apologies, and considerate sentiments. Galan's whimsical, richly painted scenes of expressive, nattily dressed forest denizens exude warmth, and as the sun sets on the mailman's day, the sky is filled with brilliant color, and the foreground scenes are thrown into sharp silhouette. A sweet story of generosity and sowing seeds of friendship." --Booklist, Praise for The Lonely Mailman : "...the artist unifies the palette throughout with such touches as the red wings of butterflies and red, autumnal leaves on the trees. The effect is to suffuse the pages with warmth.A loving tribute to problem-solvers, quarrel menders, and peacemakers." -Kirkus starred review, (...)

Synopsis
Winner at the 2017 Moonbeam Children's Book Awards and the 2017 International Latino Book Awards. This touching story of friendship and love will delight readers and letter writers of all ages who will find that many times the most wonderful is found where we least imagine. Every day, an old mailman rides his bicycle through the forest delivering letters to the local animals. These letters seem to have magic in them, as they always help resolve misunderstandings, exchange invitations to dinner or tea, and form friendships. The animals are always eager to find out what message will the mailman be giving them, and everyone is delighted with these letters. In the forest, there are fewer arguments, and harmony reigns. What nobody knows is that every night the dedicated postman writes each letter one by one, thinking carefully about what to write and who it will be addressed to. In fact, he is the only one who has no correspondence. Until one day he receives a very special letter in his mailbox.

Una entrañable y sorprendente historia que va a emocionar a pequeños y mayores, porque muchas veces lo más maravilloso se encuentra donde menos imaginamos. Un cartero silencioso y solitario. Unas cartas. Un secreto. Todos los días, un cartero pasea en bicicleta por el bosque entregando cartas a los animales locales. Estas cartas parecen mágicas, ya que siempre ayudan a resolver malentendidos, intercambiar invitaciones a cenar o tomar el té y formar amistades. Los animales siempre están ansiosos por saber qué mensaje les dará el cartero, y todos están encantados con las cartas. En el bosque hay menos discusiones y reina la armonía. Lo que nadie sabe es que todas las noches el dedicado cartero escribe cada carta una a una, pensando detenidamente qué escribir y a quién va dirigida. De hecho, él es el único que no recibe correspondencia. Hasta que un día recibe una carta muy especial en su buzón.
