Ignored by her sisters while they plan a party, baby May crawls into the letter carrier's bag and is transported into the woods, where she meets animals who are ready to play.
A letter from Mrs Owl, the Whisker Sisters' mail carrier, prompts Mia and Maya to plan a celebration. But their little sister, May, has been swept up in Mrs Owl's mailbag! Soon May's in the woods, organising the local animals to find a collection of lost letters. But will she make it home in time to join her sisters at the party?
“"The Whiskers sistersantlered Maya, feline Mia, and baby May, who can't talk just yetare granddaughters of the Guardian of the Forest. When Maya and Mia decide to throw a party, they are determined that everything will be perfect, but in their excitement, they don't realize that May has disappeared. Luckily, the animals of the forest are eager to help out. Miss Paty's sweet tale is a sure-to-please mix of all things girly: cute animals, pretty dresses, and gently bickering sisters. Though Maya and Mia get caught up in their own worlds, it's clear that they love each other and their sister. For her part, May's frustrations at not being understood by her family are played for laughs, especially when it's clear that her animal friends get her drift. Everything is drawn with thin but detailed lines and colored in warm, soft hues, such as Maya's pink hair and the warm teal of the summer sky. Give this to readers who want a tale with a heart."Booklist”
