Happy Island

By: Antonia Babauta Lyzenga

This story is based on facts. In the early 1900's a couple of governors issued . . . "frivolous proclamations such as a ban on whistling, evening parties "... etc. that were imposed on Guam. The Executive General Orders (EGO) were not taken seriously at first by the people, and later they were subjected to paying fines. Then Assistant Secretary of the Navy, Franklin D. Roosevelt and Governor Ivan Wettengel intervened and some EGOs were abolished. 1 Happy Island is about a ban on whistling and how a certain incident changed a young boy's point of view about a governor's order. His common sense, quick action, and "doing the right thing" saved a life. Reviews:"I love the fact that this is historic." Teacher C.M."Good story. Would make kids think about freedoms they enjoy." Teacher F.P.
