Welcome to Happy County, where everyone is very busy! The Bright Brothers are testing their newest invention. Hannah the Handywoman is hunting for her hammer. And Mr. Rhinehorn is just trying to get some sleep! This longer format picture book is chock-full of lovable characters—from Tina Tusker, County Commissioner to Dottie the Dog Walker and Cheese Louise—living in a spirited diverse world full of landmark early childhood subjects: first words, colors, numbers, shapes, simple maps, naps, school, and plenty of funny scenarios.

Take a tour of Happy County with this interactive, educational story collection primer in an exciting new series. Perfect for fans of Richard Scarry’s Busytown books. Book 2, Sun and Moon Together, is coming in Spring 2020.
