The second book in a trilogy, although it can stand alone. The setting is a working class neighborhood in Dublin. This is an entertaining story which follows the often hard life of a widow with seven children. Irish humor is abundant.

This is a wonderful series. It is a hilarious and, at times, sad account of a family growing up in inner-city Dublin. The characters are wonderfully unique and just plain fun to read about.
I plan on searching for more books by this author.
There are three books in this series:
1. The Mammy
2. The Chisellers
3. The Granny

A continuation of "The Mammy" trilogy - this book is excellent! Funny, heartwarming, and rousing - all in one. It's a survival story as well as a laugh-out-loud story, and I thoroughly enjoyed it.

this middle book provokes emotions, as did the 1st.
I read the 3rd book before this one and wish I had waited and read them in order, as I am the type who does not read the synopies on jackets.
I like to be engaged in the story. Knowing what has occurred ruins the stories for me.

After reading The Mammy, knew I had to read the Chisellers & The Granny. All three books are a real delight. Quick, easy & fun to read.

This book is part of the wonderfully funny Agnes Browne series. This series is about a mom and her children in 1960's working class Ireland. Every book in the series is great. I recommend all 4 of them!
