"The City Of Happiness" is the story of two boys, Jimmy and Paul, who are thrown together by fate and misfortune inside the walls of a dreadful orphanage named Child House. Child House is managed by the equally dreadful Mr. Snodgrass, who takes great delight in causing them extreme discomfort, through heavy manual work or severe punishments.Jimmy and Paul make a daring escape, taking the bad-tempered Chef's dog, Ben, with them. On their adventures, they meet many odd people and weird creatures on their way: Skiddy-Biddy-Doodle-Um, Nosey Nerbert, Chumpet the Giant Ogre, The Wicked Ones, Miss Lucy and the Needle Patch, the Sklib-Globs, Clara the Witch, and many others.Eventually, they find themselves in the City Of Tears, once known as the City Of Happiness. The people cry because the King has been taken by Clara the Witch, who has vowed that the King will not return until a river runs around the city, which is an almost impossible task. How will they manage to do it?
