What Makes You Happy?
by Marie-Agnès Gaudrat-Pourcel (Author) and Carmen Sole Vendrell (Illustrator)
Booktalk: With gatefolded (lift-the-flap) pages, this book asks open-ended questions about what it means to be happy. Rather than offering a set of ready-made answers and morals, it encourages children to think and feel for themselves. Families can engage with topics like altruism, curiosity, selfishness, and benevolence as they inspire children to make up their own minds about how best to live, love and care for themselves and others.
