LOS ANGELES, May 24, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- In the time-honored tradition of the fable, author Lissa Coffey has created a whimsical, meaningful book to delight readers of all ages. The Four Pearls and The Four Squirrels: A Modern Fable About Happiness and Distraction is a modern-day classic filled with wisdom. It inspires and enlightens in the same way that Jonathan Livingston Seagull has for generations.

Encouraged by their mentor Merlinda, four squirrels set out on a quest to find a treasure hidden in the forest. The four pearls they search for represent profound truths that lead to happiness and peace of mind. The squirrels also discover that these truths are the antidote to the many distractions that can keep us from achieving our goals.

The First Pearl: Look at what you have, not at what you don't have. (Gratitude)
The Second Pearl: Look at what you are doing, not at what anyone else is doing. (Focus)
The Third Pearl: Look at the opportunities, not at the obstacles. (Fortitude)
The Fourth Pearl: Look at what matters, not at what doesn't matter. (Faith)

These pearls of wisdom, along with their associated Happiness Principles (Gratitude, Focus, Fortitude, Faith) form the basis for a philosophy that helps readers through challenges in every aspect of life.
