wendy's story
Welcome to the world of Wendy Lattimore, the visionary behind, Snail Mail for Kids, Mailbox Mutts and Sunny the Mail Snail.
As the founder of these plush toys and unique letter subscription business, Wendy has dedicated herself to helping children overcome reading challenges, conquer boredom, and combat loneliness.
Years ago, Wendy's own son faced difficulties with reading, leading to feelings of isolation and monotony.
Determined to make a difference, Wendy ingeniously crafted captivating stories and thrilling adventures sent from her son's very own stuffed animals. Taking his beloved stuffed animals on journeys across the globe, these stories came to life through real letters, with Wendy sending her son a new letter each week from various stuffed animal friends.
He literally waited on the porch for the mailperson to show up everyday.
Wendy decided she wanted to share this experience and joy with kids around the world.
Now, thousands of kids have received Sunny's letters and are running to the mailbox too!
A new chapter for sunny
In April 2026, Sunny the Mail Snail was acquired by Adaira, a small business owner and woman of faith based in Woodbridge, Virginia. Adaira is committed to honoring Wendy's vision while expanding Sunny's reach to more children around the world. The mission, the letters, and the magic remain exactly the same, and the best chapters are still ahead.
