Cheaper by the Dozen by Frank B. Gilbreth, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters

“A touching family portrait that also happens to be very, very funny. . . its appeal is timeless." —Jonathan Yardley, Washington PostOne of the best-loved American memoirs of an oversized family and the parents who held them together. What do you get when you put twelve lively kids together with a father—a famous efficiency expert—who believes families can run like factories, and a mother who is his partner in everything except discipline? You get a hilarious tale of growing up that has made generations of kids and adults alike laugh along with the Gilbreths in Cheaper by the Dozen. Translated into more than fifty-three languages and made into a classic film starring Clifton Webb and Myrna Loy — and a remake featuring Steve Martin, Bonnie Hunt, Hilary Duff, and Alyson Stoner — this memoir is a delightfully enduring story of family life at the turn of the twentieth century. | Cheaper by the Dozen by Frank B.
