WHAT MAKES US HAPPY? BILL BAILEY PLAYS CRAZY GOLF AND HUGS TREES TO FIND OUT.

'A warm, funny read, full of personal anecdotes and love letters to things that bring Bill Bailey pleasure' Sunday Mirror

'
Very thoughtful and written in a delightfully humorous and accessible way... Guaranteed to make [you] smile' Daily Express

Is there a knack to being happy? From paddle-boarding down the Thames in a Santa hat, to wild swimming in a glacial river and cooking sausages on a campfire, Bill revels in the exhilaration of the outdoors, as well as the quieter pleasures of letter-writing, or of simple reflection.

In this beautiful and uplifting book, Bill Bailey explores all this and more while delving into the nature of happiness, all in his own, remarkable, way.


Packed with wisdom and humour, and with delightful illustrations by the comedian himself, Bill Bailey aims for the heart of pure joy and contentment - and how we can all achieve it.

Beautiful language, funny anecdotes, I want more!

Not happy having to add more words to complete the review, what a waste of time
Reviewed in the United States on January 14, 2021
What a nice diversion and informative read during these tumultuous times. Here in the US its like the world is falling a part while this book takes you back to life as it should and could be enjoyed. Luckily I've spanned the end of 2020 and the beginning of 2021 reading this, thus making it a great read for BOTH years. Thanks, Bill. I feel like we've met now, though we never have.

Bill Bailey is cleverness and wit shine in his writing. This book is such pleasure to read. It's easy to imagine his voice in your head as if he's simply talking to you. Caution, though: Life Lessons Ahead!

Found out about this book through watching Graham Norton's show and Bill Bailey was a guest. I was so impressed with his talent I thought I would purchase his book. What a delight, I smiled throughout the whole thing. It is just lovely and fun and a joy to read.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on April 26, 2024
Short and sweet and thoughtful in bite-sized chunks. You can hear Bill's voice as you read, and it made me ponder what makes me happy, and reading books like this did have a placing on my list. A little bit of inspiration and reflection goes a long way, and I am happy with that
