Description

Isabelle is learning how to write letters. She has a lot to write to Papa about after he dies. Mama sold Papa's filling station. But there's something much worse: Mama's family wants her to ship Isabelle off to live with her aunt and uncle. Now who will be there to stop little Ida from calling Mama's new boss "Papa"?

Reviews

"Dear Papa taps into the almost forgotten art of letter correspondence in today's digital and e-mail world... It's sure to be a hit with the popular 'diary' book readers." School Library Journal, USA"
