何为美好人生？可以想象的最好的生活会是什么模样？
中年为父的作家苗炜在这本书里给出了他的回答。儿子大壮出世后，苗炜陆陆续续写了三十八封信，有长，有短，点点滴滴，回忆自己的成长，记录某些片段中的体验，唯愿孩子将来有一天，遇到某些麻烦的时候，可以透过这些记录，知道自己并不孤独。这些长长短短的信，围绕着四个主题词：智识、美、道德感、家，这也是大壮父母寄予孩子美好人生的四要素。
回望这些信，苗炜说：“起初全是生命的喜悦，后来流露出了一些伤感，一些悲观。我遇到过一些委屈，也遇到过许多快乐，我没经过什么大事，不过看了几本文学书，我把书本上的经验和现实生活中的经验讲给你，像打开积攒多年的宝贝盒子：儿子，过来，不怕你笑话，给你看看。”

What is the good life? What would be the best life imaginable?
Miao Wei, a writer with a middle-aged father, gives his answer in this book. After his son Dazhuang was born, Miao Wei wrote 38 letters one after another, long and short, bit by bit, recalling his growth and recording the experience in some fragments, hoping that one day in the future, when the child encounters some trouble, he can know that he is not alone through these records. These long and short letters revolve around four theme words: intelligence, beauty, moral sense, and home, which are also the four elements that Dazhuang parents place on their children's good life.
Looking back at these letters, Miao Wei said: "At first it was all joy of life, and then it revealed some sadness, some pessimism." I have encountered some grievances, but also met a lot of happiness, I did not go through any major events, but read a few literary books, I tell you the experience of books and real life experience, like opening the treasure box accumulated for many years: son, come here, not afraid of your jokes, let you have a look."
