Adapted from the New York Times Best Selling Memoir, The Happiest Man on Earth is about the power of gratitude, tolerance, and kindness. Born in Leipzig, Germany, Eddie Jaku was a teenager when his world turned upside-down. He was rounded up and sent to a concentration camp along with thousands of other Jews across Germany. Over the next seven years he faced unimaginable horrors in Buchenwald and Auschwitz. Against all odds – he found the will to survive. Overwhelmingly grateful, he made a promise to smile every day in thanks for the precious gift of life. At 100 years old, he considers himself the Happiest Man on Earth. Life can be beautiful if you make it beautiful.
