Mallory's Reviews > Being Henry: The Fonz . . . and Beyond

When I am going to pick up nonfiction my top choice is always memoirs because there is nothing better than getting to see a piece of someone’s life from their own words and their own perspective. I will admit I did not know a lot about Henry Winkler. I had of course seen the Fonz and recognized him several times over the years in other projects saying “look it’s the Fonz”, but I honestly didn’t know much about his life. I think I was most impressed and pleased to learn that he was dyslexic and wrote a series of children’s books about a dyslexic kid to help other children like him. It is beautiful that he helped so many kids to never feel like he had felt. It made me a little sad how much time was between some of the offers for acting jobs that Henry had. Everything I have seen he has done a great job and I hope that he continues to just keep working because the world is better with his contributions in it.
