In the end, Anna chooses to sing, and she composes an on-the-spot jingle about her happy feelings that she belts from the top of the mango tree. In this exuberant story, Anna perches at the top of a mango tree, looking down on the members of her extended family and rejoicing in her good fortune to the point where she is so happy that "she almost floats out of the tree." Her family members offer advice on less precarious ways of celebrating joy, from counting the reasons for happiness to dancing to doing cartwheels, and each encounter makes Anna even happier until she is almost bursting with delight.
This is the picture-book debut for Anna Hibiscus, who lives in "Amazing Africa" and who has previously appeared in a series of early chapter books.
