Good Vibrations

Mike Love and Brian Wilson’s world-famous song, gloriously illustrated by Paul Hoppe, will bring smiles to the faces of children and parents alike.

“Zany fun . . . Good Vibrations is a good book for an aging Baby Boomer, a hipster, or a beach-going anyone.” —New York Journal of Books

“I’m pickin’ up good vibrations

She’s giving me the excitations

Good, good, good, good vibrations

She’s giving me the excitations . . ."
