This is a storey about someone who lived there who happened to be called Mister Happy Mr Happy was fat and round and happy.

Thought Mr Happy to himself, and he turned the handle of that small, narrow yellow door. The door wasn't locked on. It swung open quite easily. Just inside the small, narrow yellow door was a small, narrow, winding staircase leading downwards. Mr Happy squeezed his rather large body through the rather thin doorway on began to walk down the stairs. The stairs went round and round and down and down and round and down and down and round. Eventually, after a long time, Mr Happy reached the bottom of the staircase. He looked around and saw there in front of him, another small, narrow door. But this one was red. Mr Happy knocked at the door. Who's said the voice. A sad, squeaky sort of a voice. Who's there? Mr. B.
