Go deeper with our exclusive articles written by some of experts who worked with the team to make the series:

Children and happiness - "studies across the globe have shown that, in spite of great increases in income since the 1950s and 1960s, levels of happiness have remained pretty much the same"

Moral behaviour - "when comparing a story character who breaks one cup while stealing some jam with a story character who accidentally breaks fifteen cups on his way to dinner, young children tended to view the second character as naughtier, because he broke more cups"

Siblings - "because sibling interactions are frequent, uninhibited and intense, they offer an unrivalled context in which to develop and hone social skills"
