Happy Birthday to You!

We all like days to celebrate. But, why do we like them so much? Is it only the cake, the ice cream, or the presents? Or, is it a day to honor and celebrate something, a day to have fun, to be especially happy, and to share wishes like “Happy Birthday,” “Happy Easter,” “Happy Holidays,” “Happy St. Patrick’s Day?” If so, why not have a “Happy” day every day? For kids, this sets the imagination stirring. How about “Happy First Day of School,” “Happy Clean My Room Day,” “Happy Learn Something New Day,” “Happy New Friend Day,” Happy Old Friend Day?” Any excuse will do to start every day right by proclaiming it “Happy.” All in rhyme with over 35 delightful illustrations. If you like the books of Dr. Seuss, Mo Willems, Sandra Boynton, Suzy Spafford, Jane O’Connor, the Berenstains, Felicia Bond, Laura Numeroff, and P.D. Eastman, you will love Happy Birthday to You!
