Sometimes it's easy to forget the things that make us smile. Sometimes it's tempting to feel the world is falling apart. But awesome things are all around us:
  • Popping bubble wrap
  • The smell of rain on a hot sidewalk
  • The other side of the pillow
  • Hitting a bunch of green lights in a row
  • Waking up and realizing it's Saturday
  • Fixing electronics by smacking them
  • Being the first table called up to the dinner buffet at a wedding
  • When the cashier opens a new lane at the grocery store
  • The moment at a concert after the lights go out and before the band comes on stage
  • When you're really tired and about to fall asleep and someone throws a blanket on you
  • Sleeping in new bedsheets
  • Finding an old mix tape
  • Intergenerational dancing
  • High-fiving babies
  • Bakery air
  • Snow days
The Book of Awesome reminds us that the best things in life are free. Based on the award-winning, multimillion hit blog 1000awesomethings.com, it's a high five for humanity and a big celebration of life's little moments. With wise, witty observations from #1 international bestselling author Neil Pasricha this treasure trove is filled with smile-inducing musings that make readers feel like kids looking at the world for the first time.

AWESOME!

Product Description

The Book of Awesome presents simple pleasures for a younger, hipper generation. From the smell of gasoline to fixing electronics by smacking them to the extra time you get when the clocks roll back, The Book of Awesome reminds readers of little things that make us smile everyday.

Entries include: Old dangerous playground equipment, Wearing underwear just out of the dryer, Being the first table called up for the dinner buffet at a wedding, Watching The Price Is Right when you're home sick, When the vending machine gives you two things instead of one, The first shower you take after not showering for a really long time, When cashiers open up new checkout lanes at the grocery store, Sleeping in new bed sheets, Waiters and waitresses who bring free refills without asking, and hundreds more.

Some entries are short and others expand into wonderfully funny and astutely observant essays. As well, there are many photos from award-winning Canadian photographer Sam Javanrouh complementing the text of this "universal high five for humanity."
