“I first met Chris in 1994 when he whistled on the Today Show. I was smiling then and he’s made me smile again with this sweet and heartwarming memoir.”

FROM THE FOREWORD

by David M. Rubenstein, Businessman and Philanthropist

“Chris’s main point, so gracefully and humorously told, is that by having the skill to whistle in a way that creates joy in the world, he is doing what others can and should do: find their own whistle and use that skill or talent to bring happiness and pleasure to others. Nothing is so rewarding, in Chris’s view, than for an individual to find his or her whistle and use it to benefit others.”

FROM CHAPTER ONE

“At that moment, I caught my first close-up view of George W. Bush, the forty-third president of the United States of America, leaning back in his chair, feet on his [Oval Office] desk, unlit cigar in his hand. Only then did I fully realize how freaky this whole thing was. I could hardly believe it was happening. I was on a conveyor belt…the president had ordered a serenade, and I was about to deliver it.”

FROM THE PROLOGUE

“Whistling has allowed me to enter people’s hearts and lives in ways that have humbled and inspired me, and given me deep satisfaction and joy. Everyone has a whistle, large or small, fancy or plain. There’s something simple in each of us that can make the world a better place.”
