Jason Gay is a sports writer who decided to share his rules for winning at life in Little Victories: Perfect Rules for Imperfect Living. His essays are both humorous and poignant, and his rules are ones we all need to live by as we make our way in this confusing world. When his dad became ill with cancer, the family spent his father's last year forgetting the big picture and chasing the little victories. This stressful and heartbreaking year changed Gay's way of seeing things, and he is sharing his discoveries with us.
He is the proud father of two small children, and his rules for raising them made me smile. He definitely has rules but will definitely break them when convenient. He talks about family holiday rules (love the Thanksgiving essay) and shares dinner party rules with equal humor. There are a few essays about sports, but this is basically just a book about life. The essays are followed by notes, which make the style a bit different, but it is easy to read a wonderful "how to" for young parents.
I enjoyed his take on the world and am glad that I came across this well written book that found the good in all walks of life.
