Illustrated by
Susanne Strasser.
When some of Mr. Happy's seeds float over from his garden to next-door neighbor Miss Grimm's bleak yard, she is angry. But a pair of giant sunflowers pushes their houses together, and friendship blossoms, along with a riotous collage garden. The text is unabashedly folktale binary (happy is good; sad is bad) with a touch of positive thinking; illustrations with a European sensibility lend subtlety.
