A review by thaliaw
Cheaper by the Dozen by Ernestine Gilbreth Carey, Frank B. Gilbreth

5.0

I fell in love with this book, growing up as a single child I was so curious about how a household of fourteen (twelve kids and the two parents) would be like, this book did not disappoint. I loved Mr. Gilbreths way of educating his kids, how many things he taught them and how he did it. Must say it must have been such a fun house to be in, would have loved to have seen it in action. (Going to look up all those videos they did on the internet). (SPOILER) At the same time it was a bittersweet reading about this childhood knowing that their father would die when the oldest was 18 and the youngest was two, but it was a wonderful way of honoring him. Would recommend to anyone!
