Happiness Is...

(4) K-3 Translated by Rebecca Morrison. In a plot-light, sentimental book, two mice ponder what happiness is. Their definitions, ranging from "happiness is discovering a little piece of cheese deep in your trouser pocket" to "gazing at a poppy up close," provide wonderful images for Pfister's bright, textured print-style illustrations. Ultimately Leo concludes that "happiness is flying a kite with a friend!"; Zoe replies: "Exactly."
