Finalist Pacific Book Awards 2018! A celebration of one of the most simple joys in life: the unwitting comedy of children.
Is there anything more likely to make you laugh and put a smile on your face than the innocent and funny remark of a child? Ever since Art Linkletter first published Kids Say the Darndest Things in 1957, people have laughed and been delighted with the things kids say. The Danes have a word for the feeling of happy delight that you get from simple things in life: “hygge.” In I’m So Full of Happy Today: The Hygge Wisdom of Children you will explore many of the hilarious things kids say in our world today, like these quotes:
Dylan, age 5, “Mom, did it hurt much when you gave birth to Daddy?”Keira, age 8, “Being in love is like having a birthday in your stomach.”Miley, age 3, “When I grow up, I want to be pregnant. Or a princess.”Jack, age 5, “Mom, how old were you when you were my age?”
The latest in funny kids books: I’m So Full of Happy Today is a heartwarming collection of the remarkably observant, funny, and wise things said by children, aged two to ten years. All of the stories have a very real and personal feel, and include the name and age of each child. These playful, sometimes “tongue-in-cheek” tales straight from the minds and mouths of kids will have you learning and laughing long after you’ve turned the last page. You will be hygge happy!
