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.

The adventures of the Gilbreth family continue to be classic and enduring stories of family life at the turn of the twentieth century. Dana Ivey reads all narration and dialogue at a brisk, steady clip keeping the story line moving. Her vocal styles differ for males, females or children, adequately separating character types, but not individuals. Ivey dramatizes the episodes by adding appropriate emotional inflections, especially for the children. Sections of the tape offer bits of music enhancing the narrative with accompaniment appropriate for the turn-of-the-century era. Listeners will enjoy this entertaining and thoroughly enjoyable reading. P.A.J. (c)AudioFile, Portland, Maine
