Red Envelopes ― Sobres Rojos

What could be in the Red envelope?

Red Envelopes celebrates the joy of giving and receiving unexpected messages of love any day of the year. Why wait for the calendar to decide when to brighten someone's day?

Sending Red envelopes brings joy to both the sender and the lucky person who receives one! Red envelopes can be placed in unexpected places—not just sent in the mail. The book includes a list of items readers might want to put in envelopes—a penny for good luck, a balloon for joy and many other meaningful tokens—and invites readers to share their ideas about who they would like to send a red envelope to and why. Their answers often provide insights that open the door to a deeper understanding of their lives.
