In a country where everyone is happy, there is one little boy who breaks the law. He cries. He is taken before the King to explain his crime and this has interesting results.

This lovely picture book provides a sensitive stimulus for talking about being happy, being sad and losing a beloved pet. The full illustrations will generate as much discussion as the written text. This is a super book to read to a class, a group or to share one to one.
