What Makes You Happy?

Carme Solé Vendrell

3/5 ( ratings)

Written by Marie-Agnès Gaudrat and beautifully illustrated by the painter Carme Solé Vendrell, What Makes You Happy? is a joyous invitation for children of all ages to ponder and explore what is truly important in life.

What makes us happy? To fear the unknown? Or to be curious about new experiences? To use up what exists until it is gone? Or to take care of what exists, so that we may always enjoy it? In thirteen brilliantly painted scenes, Gaudrat and Vendrell pose simple, open-ended questions about what it means to be happy. But rather than offering a set of ready-made answers and morals, this book encourages children to think and feel for themselves. And invites families to engage with topics like altruism, curiosity, selfishness, and benevolence, to inspire children to make up their own minds about how best to live, love, and care for themselves and others.
