A Review: TREE MAIL

The Fellowship was fortunate enough to obtain a copy of TREE MAIL from Dark Horse Comics. The story is by Mike Raicht & Brian Smith, with art and colors by Brian Smith and lettering by Sarah Smith.

Rudy is a tree frog that dreams of becoming a member of the Air Delivery Corps, and organization of birds that delivers the mail on the island of Popomoko. The birds are against it because he’s disrupting the good gig they have by delivering the mail on time, in great condition, and by the book. So he is given a daunting task: deliver the mail that is in the undeliverable room…which he does. Along the way he helps others accomplish their aspirations and becomes the most popular “member” of the Corps. And made some enemies within…
This is nice little all-ages tale that includes a great lesson for kids: don’t stop believing in yourself and you can do anything that you put your mind to. Rudy’s cheery disposition, abundant energy and obliviousness to the insults can be really cute sometimes. Overall a fun little read that anyone can enjoy; especially for the family. Check it out.

TREE MAIL is in stores now or available at www.darkhorse.com.
