AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'Happiness can be found in little things.

'Where Happiness Hides is a story we often tell our children and ourselves. It is about children who find pleasure in small things: in a bowl of soup, in beetles, in discovery, in sunshine and shadow, in disappointment and in hope. Meditative and inspiring, this story invites readers to savour the moments and minutiae of everyday life.'
