Welcome to the world of pen palling! The ancient art of letter writing is slowly going extinct thanks to email and Facebook, but it's still alive and vibrant. There are still many folks out there happy to get a letter instead of a bill. Pen pals learn a lot about different cultures and find friendship in many different types of people. Pen palling is great for children and helps them with their writing and spelling skills which they desperately need if you've ever gotten a text for your kid!

In Zimbabwe a gifted young man gets the opportunity to receive a pen pal letter from an American student. They have no idea how they will change each other lives. I Will Always Write Back is a wonderful story about two pen pals who become lifelong friends. |
