The Fonz in His Hybrid Showing off His Book.

Henry Winkler, also known as the “Fonz” of Happy Days is in support to the British Government’s National Year of Reading, and is currently touring schools through the UK in a Lexus RX400h (”h” for Hybrid).

While people know the Fonz for his jukebox hit-fixing ways, being the almost bizzaro world version of the James Dean leather jacket motorcycle rebel, and the  “eey”s found now popular in Hip-Hop Music, Henry Winkler’s claim to fame now is being a a best-selling children’s novelist.

Winkler’s Series -Hank Zipster: The World’s Greatest Underachiever is partly autobiographical in the sense that Hank Zipster’s character is based off Winkler’s experiences with growing up with dyslexia.
