A modern translation of the poem 'Un sourire' ('A Smile') by Raoul Follereau, which celebrates the power of a smile--something that costs nothing but provides so much value to the recipient. In the illustrations, two children are bursting with enthusiasm as they travel to a bakery and then their school to stage a surprise birthday party for a teacher. Along the way, their positive energy inspires strangers to help one another.

Translation of: Un sourire. This text has been faithfully adapted from the French poem 'Un sourire,' attributed to Raoul Follereau in the collection Le livre d'amour, published in 1920.
