Simple Pleasures

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.

Simple Pleasures by National Trust Books and Clare Gogerty is a gift book that celebrates the happiness found in 100 simple, everyday things—from the feel of fresh sheets to the joy of daydreaming. It serves as the perfect antidote to the pressurised, disconnected modern world.

This beautifully written book reminds us of the joy in the smallest things with tender and uplifting prose, sprinkled with touches of humour. It's a soothing balm for the soul in our increasingly screen-based, disconnected lives, featuring beautiful illustrations throughout.

The 100 simple pleasures include:

  • Climbing a hill
  • The smell of autumn leaves
  • Fresh sheets
  • The sun on your back
  • People watching
  • Holding hands
  • Planting a seed
  • The first coffee of the day
  • Writing a letter
