Synopsis:
The author's followup to Life's Little Instruction Book advises readers to jump in a pile of leaves with someone you love and never drive while holding a cup of coffee between your knees, among other pithy, practical tips. Original.
From the Back Cover:
Life is a process. We are all works in progress – green tomatoes ripening on the windowsill of life. As I experience more, learn more, and contemplate more, I often think of what use my discoveries might be to my son, Adam.
Several years ago, I jotted down a list of advice for him as he left home to begin college. At the time I thought the list was fairly complete.
But within a few days of presenting him with the 32 typed pages that became 'Life's Little Instruction Book', I began to think of other entries I wished I had included. How could I have forgotten to mention 'Never be the first to break a family tradition', or 'Believe in love at first sight', or practical advice like 'Don't ride a bicycle barefoot' and 'Never drive while holding a cup of coffee between your knees'? Obviously there was only one thing to do – start another list. I promised myself I wouldn't send it to him until it reached at least 512 entries – one more than the original list. It took two years to complete.
