Licensed products will include inspiring stationery, greeting cards and school supplies, colorful mugs and home decor, quirky jewelry, eye-catching bags and totes and so much more, all featuring Emily’s hand-drawn illustrations and heart-warming messages.

The Happy News began in 2015 as an inspiring quarterly newspaper crammed full of positive news stories from around the world. Designed and illustrated by famed illustrator Emily Coxhead, the newspaper is jam-packed with optimistic real-life stories from across the globe.   Emily’s mission is to ‘sprinkle a tiny bit of happiness all over the planet’.  Celebrity supporters of The Happy News include Richard Branson, who recently gave a big ‘thumbs up’ for Emily’s new book called Make Someone Happy.

“Seeing my products now reaching the U.S. through this strategic licensing program is a dream come true”, said Emily.  “So much love has gone into them and it makes me the happiest to see them making people smile.”
