Rating:  Summary: Worth searching for Review: I remember this book so well that I can even recall how it smelled as I read it as a preschooler. This is a great little book--not outdated in the least, even almost 40 years after it first came out. My childhood copy disintegrated years ago, but I was lucky enough to find it secondhand for my own kids, who like it as much as I did. The wildly-colored pages are a precursor to sixties "groovyness," but the text is years before its time. I think children need to be taught to appreciate the little things in life just as much as adults. It is possible (and maybe necessary) to find satisfaction in daily situations. One of my favorite pages in the book shows Linus working on a jisaw puzzle. "Happiness is finding the little piece with the pink edge and part of the sky and the top of the sailboat." How true! "Happiness is a Warm Puppy" is as genuinely appealing as it was years ago. It's easy to see why the book is still sought out at online auctions. This is a little book of endearing philosophy that will survive another 40 years.
Rating:  Summary: Happiness Is Seeing This Back In Print. Review: This was my favorite book when I was little my Mom would read it to me all the time and when I learned how to read I read it all the time, the cute book just gave you a happy warm feeling! I wish I still owned the book but unfortunately it was given away but I would love to find this book again not only for me for sentimental reasons but also for my niece! Please reprint this book!
