A simple idea reigns here: it is possible to take pride in and, in fact, relish what others may believe is the humblest of tasks. Mr. Griggs is the one-man show at a small-town post office. His entire life is weighing parcels, selling stamps, wondering about those that have gone astray. When he gets sick, he misses his work terribly-he feels like a dead letter. Pictures show his gentle exuberance in the smallest details of his job. Dignified, but not doddering, he will nurture in readers a need to know more about the people who work around them.Rylant, Cynthia is the author of 'Mr. Griggs' Work - Cynthia Rylant - Paperback' with ISBN 9780531057698 and ISBN 0531057690.
