Reviews
"In my opinion, 'Luck' has little to do with Dick Van Dyke's life. It is, rather, his innate kindness and talent that have had an extraordinary effect in shaping the man. And what a fascinating self-portrait he's given us in this book." -Mary Tyler Moore "From the time I worked with Dick on the movie Bye Bye Birdie, I have admired his many talents, not the least of which is the joy and enthusiasm he shares with audiences. I'm a big fan of his……and his book." -Ann-Margret "Van Dyke tells a wonderful story about himself and his times. And-in an often surprsingly relevant manner-our times. We've always liked the performer-it's hard not to like Dick Van Dyke-but this will will make you admire him." --Playbill, "In my opinion, 'Luck' has little to do with Dick Van Dyke's life.

Synopsis
Dick Van Dyke, indisputably one of the greats of the golden age of television, is admired and beloved by audiences the world over for his beaming smile, his physical dexterity, his impeccable comic timing, his ridiculous stunts, and his unforgettable screen roles.             His trailblazing television program, The Dick Van Dyke Show (produced by Carl Reiner, who has written the foreword to this memoir), was one of the most popular sitcoms of the 1960s and introduced another major television star, Mary Tyler Moore. But Dick Van Dyke was also an enormously engaging movie star whose films, including Mary Poppins and Chitty Chitty Bang Bang , have been discovered by a new generation of fans and are as beloved today as they were when they first appeared. Who doesn't know the word supercalifragilisticexpialidocious ?             A colorful, loving, richly detailed look at the decades of a multilayered life, My Lucky Life In and Out of Show Business, will enthrall every generation of reader, from baby-boomers who recall when Rob Petrie became a household name, to all those still enchanted by Bert's "Chim Chim Cher-ee." This is a lively, heartwarming memoir of a performer who still thinks of himself as a "simple song-and-dance man," but who is, in every sense of the word, a classic entertainer.

    The book I ordered was shipped out very quickly and arrived faster than expected. The seller was awesome at communicating when I had a concern and helped reach a good solution, and I appreciate the speed at which it was addressed. Given my interactions with the seller, I would buy from them again.

    Entertaining read!

    Dick Van Dyke did Ann excellent job writing his memoir! You can almost hear him telling the tale as you read it. :) My hubby enjoyed it too, and I have a list of people who want to borrow it from me. I could read it again and again!

    DICK VAN DYKE - Happiness Personified

    This is the autobiography of Dick Van Dyke, written by, of all people, Dick Van Dyke! If there were more people in this world like Mr. Van Dyke, the world would be a better place to live.
