More than twenty years ago, H. Jackson Brown Jr. jotted down some words of advice from his own life experience to share with his college-bound son. The compilation was eventually published as Life's Little Instruction Book, a volume that proved irresistible to millions of readers worldwide and that became the first book in history to be the #1 New York Times Best Seller in both hardcover and paperback at the same time. The book's continuing popularity is proof that the simplest observations about life are often the most enlightening: "Don't let weeds grow around your dreams." "Every so often let your spirit of adventure triumph over your good sense." "Never miss a chance to dance with your wife." "Take a nap on Sunday afternoons." It turns out that life did come with an instruction manual. Rediscover the cimple but profound message of Life's Little Instruction Book.
