"In a fun and folksy way of addressing readers, Keep Moving will serve as an instruction book on how to embrace old age with a positive attitude. The chapters are filled with exclusive personal anecdotes that explore various themes on aging: how to adapt to the physical and social changes, deal with loss of friends and loved ones, stay current, fall in love again, and "keep moving" every day like there's no tomorrow,"--Amazon.com.

A show-business legend, Van Dyke is living proof that life does get better the longer you live it. His irrepressible belief in embracing the moment and unleashing his inner child has proved to be the ultimate elixir of youth. Here he offers his own playful anecdotes and advice, as well as insights from other spirited friends and family, to provide a reminder that life should be lived with enthusiasm despite what the calendar says.
