Summary: Kids are bombarded with images and narratives of consumption; but is this
where happiness is to be found?
It seems to Thad that everyone is happy, except him. Is it because of the things they own which he does not? He takes his credit card and decides to buy what apparently makes them happy: a scooter, a mobile phone, some racquets, and a host of other things...Thad's house is now brim-full of objects,
but not of joy. Hearing laughter he follows the sound to check if he has missed buying something and finds three kids having fun without any toy or device! Thad is included in the games and for the first time he feels contentment. Thad shares smiles with his new friends as they go together to return all his purchases to the shops. A story to learn something that is priceless.
