Editorial Review:
Money can't buy love and being the wealthiest person in the world doesn't guarantee happiness.
Lotsa de Casha is the richest -- and most miserable -- man in the world. No matter how colossal his castles, how fast his horses, nor how big his sandwiches, he remains a gloomy old sourpuss -- until he embarks on a fantastic adventure that leads him to the discovery of life's greatest treasure...
What is the secret to happiness? Read Lotsa's story and find out...
Lotsa de Casha Reviews:
Fantastic book to teach a beautiful lesson! 
2007-05-16 - All of Madonna's books have a message. This one is about giving to others and that is how you find true happiness. My daughter is 6 1/2 and all of Madonna's books have been on her 'favorites' list for over a year now. We give this book as a birthday gift to all of her 6 and 7-year old friends. The illustrations are like beautiful masterpieces from a museum, and the message is strong.
I don't just recommend this book (especially for girls...although the message is valid for boys as well) but ALL of Madonna's books. I originally doubted Madonna's ability to be a wonderful author, but once again, she rises to the occasion and does a fantastic job! My only regret is that she has only 6 books as I would love a series of her books like Seuss!
Get all of them!
2007-01-21 - These books are great for all children (and grown-up ones too!)...
A great read
2007-01-11 - We have bought all of the Madonna books and enjoy each of them but this is, by far, our favorite. Our 5 and 7 year old and I have so much fun reading it. I just love reading Losta's lines as they are written in English but with the Italian pronunciations. Our children laugh every time. The illustrations are gorgeous and there are many morals scattered throughout the book. It can be a bit preachy at times but the messages are all good.

2007-01-10 - I bought this book and the rest of madonna's books for my grandaughter . I love all Madonna's books.
Educational and fun
2007-01-04 - I read this to my daughter tonight, she is 4.5 and she loved it! She is more advanced in her vocabulary and understanding dialogue then others her age so this book was not too old for her. I always read with animation so using an accent for Mr. De Casha comes easy (one reviewer complained about). We enjoyed discussing it during and afterwards and the art is beautiful. I came to Amazon looking for the rest of her books which are in my cart right now! I would say it is more suitable for most older children (as it says in the description of the book) but it works for my daughter. I am excited to get the other children books in this series Madonna has written as they are entertaining and in addition filled with gorgeous art.
