Question: Who wrote this book, and what is it called!?
I am looking for a book that my ex girlfriend owned many years ago which I really enjoyed reading!. I think there were actually 2 or more books, and they were short rules for living, written by a father for his son, e!.g!. "Never drive with hot coffee between your knees" and "Invent a sign so that you can tell your wife you love her from across a crowded room"!. Does anyone know who wrote this book and what it's called, please!?

"Life's Little Instruction Book" by H Jackson Brown
http://www!.amazon!.com/Complete-Lifes-Lit!.!.!.
"When Mr!. Brown's son Adam was leaving for college in 1990, Brown wrote the first installment of "Life's Little Instruction Book" for Adam to take with him, with basic principles to live by and live well; as the years passed, it grew into three volumes, and here we have all three books under one cover with 1560 entries!. It provides food for thought, in subjects that range from mundane and practical to occasionally, some of remarkable spiritual depth!.
Much is on ethics; we are constantly making choices, some that can affect the rest of our lives, and there are some sections here that might stir us to bring our choices into sharp perspective!."

"The author's followup to Life's Little Instruction Book advises readers to jump in a pile of leaves with someone you love and never drive while holding a cup of coffee between your knees, among other pithy, practical tips!."Www@QuestionHome@Com
