I haven't watched Happy Days, and I don't read a lot of memoirs. So I'm here to say that this book is still really good even if you don't have a strong pre-existing connection to Henry Winkler. The "behind the scenes" look at what was happening on the set was really interesting from the perspective of what happens behind the scenes of any popular television show, and the challenges of having been typecast as "the Fonz" and then trying to move on with his career was also very interesting because you could see how that would happen even if you yourself do not always get the cultural references. We can all imagine our favorite characters from popular shows and imagine the unfortunate side effect of that success as being "stuck" in that role forever, at least in people's minds. However, by far the most compelling aspect of this memoir was Mr. Winkler's journey through dyslexia. It is almost unimaginable to me to think about not being diagnosed until adulthood, and what that must have been like for him as a child. If for no other reason, people should read this memoir to get a better understanding of how things can be for a child growing up with an undiagnosed learning challenge. Mr. Winkler's success, not just as an actor but in many other areas of life as well, is truly inspirational.
