Belles on Their Toes: The Warm and Wonderful Sequel to Cheaper by the Dozen―A Mother's Biography of Family Life

“From start to finish, it is a reading joy.” —Chicago Tribune The warm, wonderful, and entertaining sequel to the hit classic Cheaper By the Dozen. Life is very different now in the rambling Gilbreth house. When the youngest of the family was two and the oldest was eighteen, Lillian Gilbreth's husband and the patriarch of the family, Frank Gilbreth Sr., died, so she bravely took over his business. Now, to keep the family together, everyone has to pitch in and pinch pennies. The resourceful clan rises to every crisis with a marvelous sense of fun-whether it’s overcoming chicken pox, giving the boot to an unwelcome boyfriend, battling the rampant sexism plaguing Lillian's engineering workplace, or even meeting the President. And the few distasteful things they can’t overcome–like castor oil–they swallow with good humor and good grace.
