Why is everyone so happy?

The people in the beautiful seaside city of Maluhia know the secrets of being happy, healthy, and peaceful. And now, thousands of tourists are flocking to the island to find out how they can live that way, too. Little do they know; the answer is simple. It's also right in front of their noses. The tour guides of the happy city are all children who live the principles and practices of the ancient Hawaiian art of Ho`oponopono.

In 26 charming stories, you will find messages that shine brightly and awaken greater awareness in listeners young and old. These stories create a vision of how the world truly can become a happier and more peaceful place to live. They also convey how important it is to support our children's positive imagination and beliefs and to allow them to be themselves so that they will go on to create a better world for all of us.

These stories are based on real experiences, lived and shared by Master Teacher Dr. Ihaleakala Hew Len and internationally renowned speaker, seminar leader, and peace ambassador Dame Mabel Katz. Through their stories, as well as actual events shared by Mabel's students, the not-so-secret secrets of Maluhia will finally be revealed.

Throughout the book, themes of self-trust, gratitude, and forgiveness gently form the foundation for the action.

Maluhia is a wonderful place that children and adults will want to visit again and again to remind themselves that they could be happier. If you come often enough, you just might find yourself living in a paradise of your own.
