(4) PS A sad girl asks people, animals, and objects what makes them happy. Though her own turnaround is a little random, the girl's conclusions about what makes her happy are joyfully true to childhood: "I'm happy when I...Ride my bike...Paint on eggs...Stick finger puppets on my toes..." The ink and watercolor drawings against clean, monochromatic backgrounds are appropriately gleeful.
