I got these postcards for using with Postcrossing, and they are adorable and just what I was looking for! The cards are nice and big, sturdy, and have a good surface for writing on. I don't know if this was just my book, but I found the cards to be very easy to remove from the binding, unlike two other postcard books that I bought at the same time from the same publisher. When I was flipping through the cards today, I did notice that there is kind of a winter/Christmas theme going on; lots of bears in footie pajamas with holly, dogs with Santa hats, and animals in thick coats and green intarsia sweaters. I don't know if it's intentional, and I don't think it's a bad thing. They'd make super cute greetings for the coming holidays!
