The Happy Hocky Family! is a children's book by author and illustrator Lane Smith. Written in a style similar to the Dick and Jane books, it tells a series of short, typically single page, stories about the Hocky family, which includes the two parents, three children, their dog, and occasionally their cousin.

About the book

[edit]

The book is not a typical picture book in that the humor in it tends to be slightly dark and sarcastic, as in the works of Jon Scieszka.

Sequel

[edit]

A sequel, The Happy Hocky Family Moves to the Country!, was released in 2002.[1]
