What do you get when you mix a blunt-talking, famous efficiency-expert father and a brilliant, compassionate psychologist mother with twelve rambunctious offspring of various sizes? You get one of America's all-time best- loved memoirs! The hilarious story of growing up Gilbreth has already delighted generations of readers -- and it remains as joyous and exuberant as ever.

This was a charming story about growing up in a family with twelve kids. It was very enjoyable... much better than the movie!

This is one of my favorite books. Don't let the cover fool you-- this is the original true story of the Gilbreaths, not at all like the new movie. It is a very funny and touching story. And don't miss the sequel, Belles on Their Toes.
