Based on the award-winning 10-million-plus-hit blog 1000awesomethings.com, The Book of Awesome is a high five for humanity and a big celebration of life"s little moments: --Popping Bubble Wrap --Wearing underwear just out of the dryer --Fixing electronics by smacking them --Getting called up to the dinner buffet first at a wedding --Watching The Price Is Right when you"re home sick --Hitting a bunch of green lights in a row --Waking up and realizing it"s Saturday Sometimes it"s easy to forget the things that make us smile. With a 24/7 news cycle reporting that the polar ice caps are melting, hurricanes are swirling in the seas, wars are heating up around the world, and the job market is in a deep freeze, it"s tempting to feel that the world is falling apart. But awesome things are all around us-sometimes we just need someone to point them out. The Book of Awesome reminds us that the best things in life are free (yes, your grandma was right). With laugh-out-loud observations from award- winning comedy writer Neil Pasricha, The Book of Awesome is filled with smile-inducing moments on every page that make you feel like a kid looking at the world for the first time. Read it and you"ll remember all the things there are to feel good about.
