Here's what readers have to say about this book....
Aya has lost her happiness and does her best to find it back. This book is perfect for kids learning about feelings. My own kids are 5 and 8 and this book led to more discussions about how to gauge your own feelings. In my work I work with students in need of support in their social skills. I read this to them as well. Our discussion centered around what to do if you lose your happiness--who to talk to, steps to take, etc. The illustrations are beautiful and engaging for lower elementary.
Super cute book! My daughters loved it. The art is great and the writing style flows and it is very easy to read and discuss with young children.
