Notable Children's Book Council of Australia (CBCA) Book of the Year / The Eve Pownall Award for Information Books 2023

The children's adaptation of the extraordinary, bestselling adult title, The Happiest Man on Earth.

Life can be beautiful if you make it beautiful. It is up to you. Eddie Jaku Eddie lived with his family and adorable dachshund, Lulu, in the beautiful city of Leipzig in Germany. But one day, into the sunshine of his childhood crept a dark, heavy cloud. Not a rain cloud. Much worse than that. Adolf Hitler came to power. When Eddie was 18, he was sent to a concentration camp. The story is framed as a conversation between 101-year-old Eddie and his great-grandchildren – who are bursting with questions about the life of their Pépé. The story of Eddie's life unfolds beautifully, sensitively and heartbreakingly through his words.

‘Australia’s answer to Captain Tom ... a memoir that extols the power of hope, love and mutual support.’ (on The Happiest Man on Earth)
The Times

‘Eddie looked evil in the eye and met it with joy and kindness ... [his] philosophy is life-affirming.’ (on The Happiest Man on Earth)
