"Be nice to mice, is my advice," my granddad said to me.
"Take care of bears, be sweet to sheep, and fish deep in the sea."
Fans of Oi Frog! will love this funny and clever story about a little boy who asks his grandad how to be happy. His grandad tells him that it's all about being kind to animals, and lists an increasingly whacky and hilarious set of things to do, and, more importantly, NOT to do to creatures all around the world. Remember, don't iron a lion, don't put goats in boats and never EVER laugh at giraffes!
