Klappentext

An original and inspiring new perspective on love and flourishing The world around us feels...off. Despite a never-ending parade of new technologies, new toys, and new distractions, it seems harder and harder to find time for the things that make us human and bring us authentic joy. It's time to refocus on what's truly important to us. In Love Notes: A small book with a big heart, bestselling author and lifelong educator, teacher, and 'doctor of happiness', Andy Cope, teams up with first-time author Hannah Knowles and illustrator Amy Bradley to deliver an extraordinary new book designed to replenish and reinvigorate those parts of you that make you feel most human. You'll find a treasure trove of quotes, short stories, meaningful insights, and fun nonsense that all shed light on what gives our lives meaning: LOVE. There's a catch, however. Andy, Hannah, and Amy insist that, once you've finished reading this book, you pass it on to the person in your life who needs it the most. That way, they can also enjoy:

• A recipe for personal flourishing that gives you the energy and mindset you need to give your best self to the people you love the most
• Timeless and inspiring advice to help you replenish your reserves of happiness and love

• Colourful and original illustrations that bring the authors' unique perspectives to life Designed to heal a divided world, Love Notes encourages readers to be less 'selfie' and more 'othery'. It's full of reminders of what it means to love and be loved. Dip in, smile, and pass it on to someone who matters. Because love isn't meant to be kept - it's meant to be shared.
