"When I Was Your Age is a hilarious, heartwarming and surprising ode to growing up, getting older and wiser, and luck, life, and learning from the school of hard knocks, from SNL's longest-serving actor, Kenan Thompson"-- Provided by publisher.
Thompson provides an ode to growing up, getting older and wiser, and learning from the school of hard knocks. He is the longest-ever-service cast member of Saturday Night Live, as well as the survivor of early 2000s television programs and movies. But Thompson is also a dad to two girls, offering advice on parenting, focusing on positivity, and having fun in life. From his biggest mistakes to his most triumphant victories, there's something here for everybody! -- adapted from jacket
