Everyone loves feel good stories, and if you’re dying of a hangover, they’re pretty much the best thing ever. Well that and a fry-up.

Then there is the Brazilian stray dog, who managed to lose 30lbs, after being obese and weighing in at a massive 80lbs.

The dog had been fed scraps by strangers, and given the amount of weight he put on, you have to imagine there were a lot of scraps and a lot of strangers.

He dropped the pounds after a stranger brought him to the Animal Protection Organization, who turned him into a healthier, happier dog.

Oh, and then we have the dad who was totally down with his son choosing to play with an Ariel doll, and got seriously excited in a YouTube video.

Because why can’t girls like trucks and dinosaurs and boys like Disney Princesses.

Finally, in the stuff of Matilda’s dreams, every library in Scotland is giving children a library card.

They will be issued the cards at birth or before they enter primary school, so kids will be encouraged to read.

Scottish Prime Minister Nicola Sturgeon claimed that it will ‘make sure every child has the opportunity to get excited about reading’
