About this listen

'To find happiness, look halfway between too little and too much.' (Ruskin Bond)

  • Why be happy and how, and why not to worry if you think you are not.
  • Why it is easy to be happy, and how you can miss happiness even if it stands before you.
  • How a bird can fill you with joy and how a stranger’s smile can soothe you.
  • Why happiness may not even be the word for what we really need.

This was our #botm for #ruskinbondbookclub

I first read 📖 the sample on kindle and then bought it on @audible & listened 👂 to it there!

It's available for INR 230/- hardback, for 160 pages.
Published in 2016 by @speakingtiger it is one GO TO BOOK when stressed or depressed or sad.

It is an AMALGAMATION of BEAUTIFUL WISE WORDS, QUOTES, SAYINGS, POETRY by popular & not-so- popular writers..

The USP being, it has those works only, which @ruskinbondofficial cherishes and admires.

📌For me PERSONALLY,

IT FELT LIKE SITTING IN THE COMFORT OF AN WISE MAN WHO HAD THE MAGICAL POWER TO SOOTHE WOUNDS WITH HIS WISE WORDS.

P. S. : the hardcover contains a notes 📝section too to be used by the reader, for personal scribbling.

🙋🏻I loved listening👂 to it on @audible_in and it took me in deep slumber 💤😴.. a peaceful sleep.

That's the SIGN OF A GOOD READ, it makes you HAPPY & CONTENT and relaxes you.

Do not buy. Waste of time.

Waste of a book. Do not buy in any case. Only quotes. Nothing worth readable.
