Count 'em–a dozen carrot topped, freckle-faced kids. Dad, a jovial optimist, successful inventor and efficiency expert is fond of doing his work at home. Mom, a psychologist, is busy putting everything she knows into practice.

Listen along and discover the strange things that happen when Dad's experiments run awry…how Frank Jr. gets left behind at a roadside restaurant…how the whole clan has their tonsils out en masse…experience a first date with Dad in the backseat, or treeing a peeping Tom...You can be sure they're not only cheaper, they're funnier by the dozen.© 1948 Frank B. Gilbreth, Jr. and Ernestine Gilbreth Carey; (P) 2000 Random House, Inc. Biographies Education Primary Education Relationships Childhood Education

The only thing we didn’t like was how long the music went into each chapter. Otherwise great.

No matter how they don't say it, this is abridged. I'm very familiar with this book, the first time I read it was in 1974. There are a lot of little details that didn't make it to the recording.

Somewhat Disappointing
