About the Book



Sometimes when children are sad, it can be difficult for them to imagine ever feeling happy again.



Book Synopsis



Playing at the water table is fun. But Erik thinks getting splashed is not fun. When his sleeve gets wet, Erik gets sad, and he can't imagine ever being happy again. Then, with a classmate by his side, Erik becomes absorbed by a new idea: making the water disappear. As it does, Erik discovers his sadness has vanished and happiness has reappeared, like magic. Airdah-taroo!

The book contains a page of information to help adults connect the story to children's experiences.



Review Quotes
