This is a great book for anyone that is looking at a more simple life. I purchased this book after borrowing from my local library, as I wanted to be able to reference certain aspects of the book for later use. It is in clear chapters and also has sections on how to live simply for each age and aspect of your life. I have already applied some of the ideas for this book into my life, menu planning, vegetable gardening, keeping chickens etc. I like that it isn't forceful in saying this is HOW you should be doing things, but a gentle guide that you take all or some and adapt them to your life. It has been written by an Australian, so it fits in with our climate, lifestyle etc. The only disappointment with this book is there is no index at the back, so I found it difficult to find something that I had read but couldn't remember where it was on the book (although the contents page is very in depth).Read full review
I LOVE this book. I love the photos and the way the whole book feels like it is written from the heart. It is inspiring and helpful and feels like the kind of book you wish a loving Grandma had written just for you! I bought this book because it presents the simple life I am desiring in a way that is achievable at one's own pace. Some books are just too complicated with methods that are not simple at all. I especially like that it was written by a lady who lives in my region of Australia, because many books like this written by southern located writers don't always serve in our sub-tropical climate. I am thinking of buying a copy for my daughter next birthday.
A very thought provoking book. With climate change etc we all need to do something toward making our world more sustainable and leave it as we would like it to be for the next generation.

really helpful hints that i am puting to use. beautiful photos through out. it was nice to read about the simple things that Rhonda and her husband have done to improve there lifestyle. all so simple that everyone can do it without to much hassle. the book is beautifully set out and the photos are lovely. would reccommend it to other people to read and put a few things into practice.
Rhonda is passionate about living a simple lifestyle. Her popular blog has now become a beautifully written and presented book. This is not a book that will be read once and then left on the shelf. It is a "go to" reference book for recipes, gardening and simple living. If you are looking to be inspired and encouraged in changing to a more "down to earth" lifestyle, you will love it!
