Josh Chetwynd is a former USA Today and Hollywood Reporter writer who has written books with titles like The Secret History of Balls and How The Hot Dog Found Its Bun, and his most recent work is titled The Book Of Nice. Subtitled "A nice book about nice things for nice people," Chetwynd's book couldn't come at a better time, as our culture is filled with not-so-nice people saying and doing not-so-nice things (including blowing up little children).

Chetwynd explores being nice through chapters on gestures, songs, words, characters and offerings that spread the love and does so with wit and intelligence. It's an important book, especially for young people, many who have never been taught the lost art of loving one another well.
