How can a little girl find her missing smile? She loves to smile but one day the thing she loves best just seems to disappear. She looks everywhere she can think of and finds loads of other missing things along the way. But the smile eludes her. Can anyone help her get it back? This is a charming idea and thoughtful too about things that help make us be happy.
Sunny has lost something terribly important... her smile! She searches everywhere: under the sofa, in the dog basket, in all her pockets, yet it's nowhere to be found.

This fabulously funny new story from an award winning animator will bring a smile to your face with its affectionate depiction of the chaos of family life and the joy of finding lost things.
