About this title

Synopsis

An enchanting tale told in rhyme and whimsically illustrated in full color. Oolong, a young lad, learns a valuable lesson while on a great adventure (he is in search of Pickled Palamadora). He shares this lesson with those he encounters on his journey through the Dark Forest and onto the Village of the Grumpies. A marvelous thing happens when he returns home for the Laughing Day celebration.

About the Author

Before Dr. Hope, J.A.P.D. (Just A Pretend Doctor) had finished with school he had lived in forty different environments. As a child he lived in foster homes, state run dormitories, with step parents, grandparents and in boarding schools. He saw first hand abuses that most of us can't even imagine. He vowed as an adult that one day he would help make the world a better place for children. He started the "Life Lesson Series" of which Laughing Day is the first, to help kids get a head start on life. Four more titles are in pre press at his publisher and will be released in 1999. He is an active member of Childhelp USA, a non profit organization that tirelessly fights child abuse and neglect. He volunteers his time and donates a portion of his royalties from Laughing Day to that organization.
