"I'm glad Lillian got her day in the sun. Even though little of this book truly focused on her, it did bring into close focus her tenuous situation and otherworldly strength."
"This book is hysterical. It would be funny enough if you didn't know it was real, but when you bring that to mind, that just makes it even better. Can you imagine having ten (or eleven depending on the time) siblings? And I thought having two was bad."
"I read this one before Cheaper by the Dozen. A book about an excellent mom (this is harder to handle now that I AM a mom. She really did it all while raising 11 children), very sweet yet funny tribute. Both books a really fun fast read."
