How to Be Happy with Who You Are

A Puffin Chapter Book

Beschreibung

"True happiness comes not from comparison, but from accepting who we are." The young Princess of the Sea wants to be like her friends--strong like a mountain, sweet like a river, or full of life and color like a tree. But with each change, she faces new surprises. With the turn of seasons and shifting forms, she learns a gentle lesson: you shine brightest as yourself. A magical, thoughtful tale about nature, change and self-acceptance, this charming chapter book is the ideal introduction to the imaginative world of Sudha Murty.
