What is Two parts mischief about?

Stan is a lively little boy: two parts mischief and one part firework. He fills his world with energy, noise and bright ideas, until a cold wind blows through his life and everything changes. As sadness settles over him, the sunshine seems far away. With gentle words, expressive illustrations and a touch of music, Stan’s story explores difficult feelings and the hope of finding your way back to happiness. A thoughtful picture book about sadness, understanding and emotional recovery.
