We love getting feedback here at Smart Poodle Publishing. Today I received a letter from Courtney, who was one of our Smart Poodle Publishing Youngest Travel Contest writers. She sent me a thank you note for The Travel Adventures of Lilly P Badilly: Costa Rica, and drew some beautiful pictures. The smile on my face when I opened this letter was so HUGE, that my cheeks started hurting. Courtney, you really made my day! THANK YOU for taking the time to write this and draw the pictures! I will be posting your letter on the wall in my office, so I can look at it every day. To read Courtney’s excellent story as well as all the other winning stories, click here.

The most impressive part of Courtney’s letter was that she recycled the envelope I sent her with her certificate by cutting it and turning it around. That is the ultimate in conservation. What if each of us recycled an envelope every day? How many trees would we save?

Tomorrow the entire Badilly family will be performing in millipede costumes at the Hialeah Literacy Fair. Stay tuned for photos and info about the event.
