I just want too say that I love my grandpa's books. I never met him. I'm only twelve. I've loved all his books and i encourage you to buy them. This is a true statement. I am his grandson.

5.0 out of 5 stars In one funny era, out the other, October 6, 2000

By 

"rivkasa" (New York) - See all my reviews

This review is from: In One Era & Out the Other (Paperback)

Hilarious!!! The title really portrays this book. It starts with the author's childhood and ends with the birth of his grandchild. Throughout, The author recounts funny episodes that took place. In the beginning of the book the author writes: "It was on my fifth birthday that Papa put his hand on my shoulder and said, "Remember, my son, if you ever need a helping hand, you'll find one at the end of your arm." The author really heeded that advice and perhaps that was the key to his success. Sam Levenson has some advice of his own, like: "For attractive lips, speak words of kindness." This book is warm, very funny and at times a little sad. A must read!

5.0 out of 5 stars An inspiration, August 18, 2001

This review is from: In One Era & Out the Other (Hardcover)

I fondly remember my mother (who is now 8l) laughing and telling Sam Levenson's stories that she heard on the radio or TV. They truly were funny, meaningful and they helped her through some difficult days.

I just finished a biography of Audrey Hepburn and in it was Mr. Levenson's "if you need a hand, there's one at the end of your arm" piece and it's as poignant today as it was back then.

I'm saving these books to pass on to my three daughters so his ageless wisdom will continue to inspire a third generation.

(Nolan Levenson of New York, your grandfather was a gem!)
