In the peaceful village of Maplewood, dawn arrives with golden light spilling over rolling hills, waking the forest and its animal residents. Among them is Dotty the Donkey, who is beginning her very first day as the village's official mail carrier. She has spent days preparing-memorizing the mail route, listening to the wise guidance of Postmaster Owl, and readying her bright red scarf knitted by her grandmother. With the air rich with the scent of wildflowers, baked bread, and damp earth, Dotty sets off with her mailbag, feeling the weight of her new role not just as a deliverer of letters, but as a carrier of connection, love, and hope. Every step toward the post office feels like the start of a grand adventure, one that will bind her even closer to the community she cherishes.
Inside the cozy Maplewood Post Office, Dotty finds herself surrounded by the sights and scents of letters and parcels waiting to travel across the village and beyond. The wooden cubbies brim with colorful envelopes and neatly wrapped packages, each carrying its own story. Postmaster Owl's careful organization and warm presence remind Dotty that this work is more than a job-it's a service that links hearts and homes. As she accepts her first official delivery map and secures her leather mailbag, Dotty feels her nervousness melt into determination. The day ahead promises winding forest paths, friendly faces, and unknown surprises. With courage in her heart and a spring in her step, she sets out into the bright morning, ready to begin her journey as Maplewood's kindest and most dedicated mail-carrying donkey.
