The Davirons are small fantastic beings that change their colour according to their feelings. They live in a secret place where humans can’t find them. The davirons are happy but they don’t know how to laugh.

Davi-Daviron finds out that children can laugh, but he has never seen a child. The book describes the story of his journey to the city, and his search for a child that can teach him how to laugh.

The easy narrative style and sense of humour makes the book ideal for children who are just starting to develop their reading skills. The charming illustrations by Javier Serrano will bring alive this delightful story in the imagination of any young reader.

The book doesn’t have a translation into English available yet, but it would be worth translating.

Recommended Reading Age: 8+
