(#6) Cheaper by the Dozen, by Frank B. Gilbreth, Ernestine Gilbreth Carey

Started: 2/26/2015
Finished: 3/7/2015


Because Sarah was in the play, Cheaper by the Dozen, put on by the Southside Theater Guild, I had to read the original book written by two of the twelve original dozen kids.  As fun as the play was for our family, I am selfishly glad it's over.  I like having most of my evenings with my family again.

I picked up the book from GA Pines to see how true the play was to the original biography.  Come to find out, many of the scenes in the play were verbatim the way they were written in the book.  The book goes further in depth into what it was like to grow up in this household.

An easy read that I recommend for anyone.
