Simple Pleasures: Life’s Little Joys

A gift book celebrating how much happiness can be found in 100 simple, everyday things - from the feel of fresh sheets to the joy of daydreaming. The perfect antidote to the pressurised, disconnected modern world.
From the delight of seeing the first blossom of spring to the anticipatory pleasure of planting a seed, this book reminds us how much happiness can be found in the smallest things.
