This true story is told in an interesting manor that adds 'life' to the way mail is delivered by mules every day to the most remote Indian village in the United States.

A letter narrates, in simple verse, its journey from any city to Supai Arizona, a Havasupai Indian village at the bottom of the Grand Canyon. Along the way it meets other pieces of mail such as Maggie Magazine, Reggie Registered, Chunky and a box of baby chicks. Because the residents of Supai must get their groceries by mule train mail, the letter gets a look at the only walk-in freezer in the US Postal system and meets French Fry Pierre, Henry Hot Dog and Sloppy Joe. After being strapped to the backs of the mules for the 8 mile journey to the bottom of the canyon the mule train encounters a flash flood that threatens the mail, the mules and the humans in charge.

A delightful way to learn something new about the mail, mules and the intriguing Havasupai Indian Tribe.
