Mack the Leech and Peter Praying Mantis are very unkind. They like to take things from others, so they don't have to work for what they want themselves. When the other bush animals organise a Happiness Day to help those in need, Mack and Peter set out to take what they can for themselves. Thankfully the kind volunteering bush animals find a way to save the day. Mack the Leech and Peter the Preying Mantis may enjoy creating unkindness, but there is still hope that one day they might learn to create a domino effect of kindness, just like the other bush animals.Kate hopes that her Beyond a Joke series of children's books will help readers to do the same.

If you are fearful, then look at Clifford the Crocodile and how happy he was to have beautiful teeth once again and the knowledge gained on how to keep teeth and gums in good health.
