Life Is So Good | 
pickGeorge Dawson was born in 1898. In 1996, at the age of 98, he decided to learn how to read. This is his inspirational story, in his own words.
One minor criticism I have with the book is that the story of how Dawson learned to read doesn't start until eighty-two percent of the way through the book. Until then, it's mostly about how he lived through the Jim Crow south. Either way, you'll be glad to have read about this gentle, peaceful man.
