What makes a happy person, a happy life? In this remarkable book, George Dawson, a 101yearold man who learned to read when he was 98, reflects on the philosophy he learned from his fathera belief that "life is so good"as he offers valuable lessons in living and a fresh, firsthand view of America during the twentieth century.Born in 1898 in Marshall, Texas, the grandson of slaves, George Dawson tells how his father, despite hardships, always believed in seeing the richness in life and trained his children to do the same. As a boy, George had to go to work to help support the family, and so he did not attend school or learn to read; yet he describes how he learned to read the world and survive in it. "We make our own way," he says. "Trouble is out there, but a person can leave it alone and just do the right thing. Then, if trouble still finds you, youve done the best you can."At ninetyeight, George decided to learn to read and enrolled in a literacy program, becoming a celebrated student. "Every morning I get up and I wonder what I might learn that day. You just never know."In Life Is So Good, he shares wisdom on everything from parenting ("With children, you got to raise them. Some parents these days are growing children, not raising them") to attitude ("People worry too much. Life is good, just the way it is").Richard Glaubman captures George Dawsons irresistible voice and view of the world, offering insights into humanity, history, and Americaeyewitness impressions of segregation, changes in human relations, the wars and the presidents, inventions such as the car and the airplane, and much, much more. And throughout his story, George Dawson inspires the reader with the message that sustained him happily for more than a century: "Life is so good. I do believe its getting better."
