From social media’s favorite vintage nana: warm, heartfelt advice on how to discover joy and beauty in your everyday life. Have a cup of tea and settle in!


“In times when unexpected disappointments seem lurking around every corner it’s even more important to focus your attention on things that are beautiful.”—Diane Shiffer


Known to her nearly 2.5M followers as @shifferdiane on TikTok and Instagram, Diane Shiffer is the internet's favorite nana. Her cozy, candid posts—featuring cups of coffee on the porch, cats on the countertop, and vintage treasures—have become a sanctuary for those craving softness and kindness in a divided and harsh time.



Like a collection of letters from a wise and loving grandparent, this book offers warmth, wisdom, and encouragement for anyone seeking more peace, joy, and self-acceptance. Diane’s signature blend of gentle humor, vintage charm, and heartfelt reflection invites you to slow down and reconnect with what matters most. When we treat ourselves with kindness, we often find that life flows more easily—and even joyfully.


THE SMALLEST OF JOYS is an invitation to slow down, embrace self-love, and welcome a little stillness (maybe even silliness!) into your days. With short, heartfelt chapters, you’ll discover how to:

· Embrace your inner weirdo
· Be patient with yourself through life’s changes
· Keep a tidy home without overwhelm
· Develop a positive body image
· Heal from heartbreak
· Connect with others through gratitude
· Find everyday magic in the simplest moments

Whether you’ve been following Diane for years or are just meeting her now, this book is like a warm teacup in your hands and a soft blanket around your shoulders. A modern antidote to hustle culture and self-criticism, it’s a reminder that kindness—especially toward yourself—can be a powerful way to live.

DIANE SHIFFER is a retired teacher, mother of five, and the Internet’s favorite nana with over 2.5M followers across platforms with whom she shares the cozy, candid, and captivating posts for which she has become well known. She began her career working in day treatment programs for people with developmental disabilities. She also worked in preschools before becoming a special services coordinator for Head Start, a federal program that provides comprehensive services to low-income children and their families. She and her work have been featured in outlets including CBS Sunday Morning and The Washington Post. She lives in Albion, NY, with her youngest daughter, Millen, in a house built in 1930 that is chock-full of the vintage furniture and décor she adores.
