This Boy Is Bringing Back Old School by Sending a Written Letter to Every Country in the World

One boy from England is redefining communication and bringing back the old fashion hand-written letter.

At just five-years-old, Toby Little began writing letters to people in different countries. The first letter was to a friend who was living in Hawaii at the time. The letter was short and sweet, but it sent Little on a journey he never expected.

A few months after Little sent the first letter he started a website and Facebook page with a goal of sending a letter to someone in every country in the world. Little started documenting his letters in a book called Dear World, How Are You?, sharing over 562 letters that he had written and received.

Little writes to children, teachers, disaster specialists, ambassadors and more. In his letters he asks about the country where they live and the culture there.

Little’s book Dear World, How Are You? is now available for purchase. Check out some of the responses Little has gotten below.
