Who likes a line at the post office?
I am pretty sure I am unique in all the world in one way: I like standing in line at the post office.

| A clever story, Chinese culture, good brain exercise, and some geometry, too! How often can you say all that about one book? My granddaughters, 6 and 3, were thoroughly engaged, and so was I. A good multigenerational activity as well. | |
