Book Reviews by Bargain Books MUM’S MAIL HAS A R2000 BARGAIN BOOKS VOUCHERS TO GIVE AWAY. FOR CHILDREN WHERE HAPPINESS LIVES by Barry Timms. This gorgeously illustrated Little Tiger Press title with flaps to lift and peepthrough pages is not only a smile-inducing picture book but also a wonderful way to engage children in discussions of happiness. It explores contentment, materialism and teaches us that more is not always better. I especially loved that it reminds us that you might just have all that you already need. It made me take time to pause, take stock of what I already have, and find happiness there. In a world of “too much”, a title like this reminds us of what really matters. A terrific addition to any home or classroom bookshelf. ZAP! EXTRA: TOO CUTE ERASERS by Hinkler. With magical, moldable, bakeable eraser clay, sculpt 12 of your very own gorgeous creations with eraser clay, and then bake them in the oven to make erasers that are just too cute! With a 48-page instructional book, 6 packets of clay, two specialised clay sculpting tools, black ‘kawaii’ eyes, and glitter to make your designs sparkle, it is just so simple! This delightful kit also includes cheery press-out boxes to fold and use to display your incredible designs. One thing is for sure, kids 8+ years and older will never have to worry about making an error again!

This is also a must read for anyone wanting to rid themselves of internal mind clutter and wanting to gain more joy in their everyday work life.
