João que chora e João que ri

by Comtesse de Segur · 1865

+ Want to read

Two children with very different temperaments sit at the centre of this classic tale. One weeps at nearly everything, while the other laughs at nearly everything. Their contrasting dispositions shape how they meet the world and the people in it. Through small adventures and mishaps, the story shows how a child's habits of feeling can affect his own life and those around him. Its gentle moral lessons are delivered in a warm, simple style meant for young readers.
