I'm not qualifed to provide a score, but these are the changes I would make if it were my letter. I'm assuming it actually mentioned a booklet and you're not simply assuming they have one. It would be helpful to say which area the summer homes were in. It's hard to send a postage-paid envelope when you don't know how much the postage will be (because you don't know what the booklet will weight). I would also simply say "Please send me" instead of "I would very much appreciate your sending" because it's her job and you don't need to bend over so far to be polite when a simple "please" will do.
