The School of Life Small Pleasures

Small Pleasures, published by The School of Life, focuses on the small pleasures in life. Instead of always pursuing bigger and bigger dreams – at the expense of both ourselves and the world around us – a change of perspective from the large to the small can bring us the happiness we seek. The purpose of this book is to guide us to those small pleasures in life and tell us how to find them.

This is a book to guide us to the best of life’s small pleasures: everything from the distinctive delight of holding a child’s hand to the enjoyment of disagreeing with someone, to the joy of the evening sky; an intriguing, evocative mix of small pleasures that will heighten our senses and return us to the world with new-found excitement and enthusiasm.
