In this fourth book in the series Cuentos para dormir que les haran despertar, A mi amigo le encanta que sea feliz, the teachings of the story are based on Chapter 5 of the book of Matthew, which is traditionally known as the Beatitudes of the Sermon on the Mount. By quoting these verses from the version of La Palabra (Espaa), the Beatitudes become words of happiness, very easy to learn not only because of the phrases, but because of the messages that they want to teach Javi, Anita and their friends. The children understand how important it is for Jesus to know that they are happy and that they know how to contribute to the happiness of others.
