As a prince, Little Sid can have anything he wants--feasts, cakes, presents, parades, entertainment of all kinds--but what he really wants is to be happy. Since Little Sid can't find happiness in his castle, he sets out to discover it himself. His journey leads him to a mountain in search of three wise men and after several encounters along the way, Little Sid learns that to be happy, he wants to be present: be here now.

Little Sid is both a simplified version of the Buddha's tale and an introduction to mindfulness. It's a great way to present the idea that happiness comes from being present in the moment rather than from material objects.
