100 RULES FOR LIVING TO 100 An Optimist's Guide to a Happy Life

by | Read by Tom Bergeron, Dick Van Dyke [Intro.]

Biography & Memoir • 7.5 hrs. • Unabridged • © 2025

While a brief introduction to this audiobook is voiced by Dick Van Dyke himself, the balance is assigned to his friend Tom Bergeron. He does a remarkable, impeccable, and simply wonderful job, narrating with a rhythm and tonality similar to Van Dyke's. One might believe one is listening to the 100-year-old actor himself. In addition to talking about his life, Van Dyke also quite candidly describes living with the health and mobility issues that have touched him in his most recent years. Throughout the presentation, anecdotes and vignettes thoughtfully portray the pivotal influences on the man and his sensibilities. The novel approach of presenting the ever optimistic Van Dyke's "rules for living" works effectively. W.A.G. © AudioFile 2025, Portland, Maine [Published: DECEMBER 2025]
