Priscilla learns that searching for happiness through the accumulation of “stuff” leads to disappointment and loneliness.
Priscilla has a knack for finding the best and prettiest things. But when tasked with choosing a birthday gift for her friends, she finds it hard to part with her collection.
When Priscilla’s attachment to her “finds” prevents her from attending her friend’s birthday party, she comes to realize that happiness is about more than just accumulating things. In the end, Priscilla chooses to value her friendships and relationships with others over her belongings.
Includes a Note to Parents and Other Caregivers by Elizabeth McCallum, PhD, with more information about cutting down on the clutter in your child’s room, and the difference between normal childhood collecting and potentially problematic hoarding behaviors.
