This inspiring book of wisdom, life lessons, and self-help from National Geographic celebrates the power of optimism: the driving force behind the authors’ beloved, socially conscious clothing and lifestyle brand, now worth more than $100 million.
Following the chronology of their personal and professional journeys, Bert and John share their unique ride—from their scrappy upbringing outside Boston to the unlikely runaway success of their business. The brothers illuminate ten key "superpowers" accessible to us all: openness, courage, simplicity, humor, gratitude, fun, compassion, creativity, authenticity, and love. Their story, illustrated with the company's iconic artwork, shows how to overcome obstacles and embrace opportunities—whether it's growing stronger from rejection, letting your imagination loose, or simplifying your life to focus on what matters most.
In these colorful pages, Bert and John's plainspoken insights are paired with inspiring quotations, playful top-ten lists, deeply moving letter from the Life is Good community, and valuable takeaways from tapping the power of optimism to live your best life. Both entertaining and profound, Life is Good: The Book is the ultimate guide to embracing and growing the good in your life.

About Us
About Wildwood Books
Wildwood Books is not your average bookstore. We’re a local hub for readers, collectors, and anyone who gets a kick out of discovering something new or long-forgotten on a crowded shelf.
What you see here is exactly what you get: honest-to-goodness stacks, a living collection. Our shelves are lined with everything from American history, classics, and biographies, to cookbooks, crime fiction, textbooks, and deep cuts you won’t find at the chains. We’ve got rare finds, fresh bestsellers, and those odd gems you only notice when you slow down and actually look.
We buy, sell, and trade both new and used books. Our stock is sourced from local libraries, estate sales, and fellow readers all over town. What matters most to us is the story each book brings—not just what’s inside, but who picked it up, passed it on, or made space for it on their own shelves.
Wildwood Books is a space for real book people—teachers, students, nurses, collectors, history buffs, and everyday readers. If you see a title here, it’s because it matters to someone, not just because it’s a hot new release.
Come visit us in person, browse the shelves, and take home your next story—or shop online, where we ship our books nationwide and worldwide. Whether you’re after a classic American Revolution history, a modern thriller, or something you’ve never even heard of, you’ll find your place here.
