Something to be happy about: This mesmerizing bestseller is revised and updated. Originally published 25 years ago (happy anniversary!) from a list that Barbara Ann Kipfer started making as a child, it's the book that marries obsession with happiness. And it now has 4,000 fresh and more current reasons to be happy: Rabbit tracks in the snow. Kiteboarding and kitesurfing. Caramel gelato. Scoring super-high on a Scrabble turn. Babies burping. Summer storms. White cupcakes with multicolored sprinkles. Big red barns. 20 minutes all to yourself. No opinions, no explanations, no asides, no footnotes, editorializing, or proselytizing. Just the simple premise of a list of things that make us smile. With its chunky shape, striking black-and-white cover, and 100 whimsical illustrations by Pierre Le-Tan, the new 14,000 Things is an irresistible catalog of good thoughts completely updated to reflect today's world--and an uplifting gift for people of all moods and all ages.… (mais)

Clearly I'm happier about other things :) ( )
  MandaTheStrange | Oct 7, 2020 |
I love pithy sayings, one-liners, quick quotes, words to live by, inspirational things. This book is chock full of things I love...molasses sweet bread, reveling in time alone, sandalwood, snow globes, plush over-sized bath sheets, shoofly pie, hotel rooms equipped with terry-cloth robes, champagne and orange juice with bacon and eggs, squirrels building nests low in trees, book stores, libraries, ocean view, licorice, rice krispy treats, nanaimo bars, bell bottomed jeans, peasant blouses, movie popcorn, drive-in movies. I bought this book in 1990 and I read it with pen in hand and put a check mark beside each of my favourite things. I also wrote my husband's name beside things I knew were his. Today as I read the book, again with pen in hand to add new check marks I see an X beside some and I wonder...who was that person. I know it was not me because the choices are not mine. It is female because she chose sling back pumps. The only one I can imagine is my mother and her choices give me pause...we have a number in common but so many seem strange to me and make me think about the sides of my mother I never knew/saw. She is no longer with me and this is like seeing her again. ( )

I thought this book would make me happy, but it really annoyed me. The list includes things I don't have but I desperately want. Lots of food. And many things I couldn't care less about. This book just didn't do it for me. ( )

If you love lists and happy thoughts, you'll love this book. ( )
  StephanieNicole | Oct 22, 2010 |
This book has sentimental value for me, but I'd love it even if it didn't. It is exactly what it says: a list of 14,000 to be happy about. I enjoy reading from random pages every now and again. Probably a good book for a gift, or a treat for oneself. ( )
