Plot[]
Mr. Happy lives in Happyland, a country where everyone is happy all day long. Cats, mice, dogs, worms, elephants, even flowers and bees in Happyland have big smiles on their faces. Christmastime in Happyland was an especially happy time indeed! Over in Smiletown, the capital of Happyland, everyone was doing their Christmas shopping. Mr. Happy and some of his friends were busy too. They were decorating the enormous Christmas tree in the market square.
But Mr. Happy and his friends had a problem, Mr. Clumsy was helping string the lights up the previous year but broke all the light bulbs after getting tangled in the wires! All the Christmas lights were broken and this made everyone in Happyland very...unhappy. Mr. Happy was miserable over the fact that there wouldn't be Christmas lights this year and everyone who saw him became miserable as well. Mr. Happy was trying to think of a solution to this problem when Mr. Impossible came to Mr. Happy's house; floating in mid air!
Mr. Happy told Mr. Impossible the situation and Mr. Impossible came up with how to restore all the Christmas lights in Happyland! Mr. Impossible did what is arguably the most amazing, incredible, and impossible thing he ever did: he flew all the way to the stars, filled up a sackful of stars and hung all the stars around Happyland! Stars were hung on the Christmas Tree and around town. Mr. Impossible even had the honour of hanging the brightest star at the top of the Christmas tree in the market square. Great job Mr. Happy and Mr. Impossible! Merry Christmas to both of you and everyone in Happyland!
