Getting into freshly laundered sheets. A dog in the office for a day. Unexpected cake. Studies have suggested that happiness doesn't come from thinking about what might happen in the future, but by focusing on the small moments of delight we find in our daily lives.

Cultivating these positive emotions makes us happier and more resilient, so writer Jason Ward has gathered 365 'micro-joys' that span the seasons of an entire year, from cherry blossoms to snow-capped rooftops; wild swimming to naps on rainy afternoons.

A Year of Good Things is a feel-good collection of small, splendid things that can be dipped into for quick inspiration and will help anyone to hone their skills so that they notice and celebrate the goodness in life.
