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.© 1948 Frank B. Gilbreth, Jr. and Ernestine Gilbreth Carey; (P) 2000 Random House, Inc.

I loved reading this book, it is so light hearted and fun. I loved this audio version of it as much if not more so than the printed copy! We all need to just kick back and enjoy a belly laugh every now and then, this book is just the ticket! Try it, you won't be sorry!

Loved in print, even more in Audio!

Delightful, purely lovely!

I recently re-discovered this audiobook. It is one that I listen to every night as a child. It has been so lovely to hear these words that are so elegantly, entertainingly narrated

I remembered watching the original movie ‘Cheaper by the Dozen’ when I was a little girl. I listened to this while walking each day and found myself laughing out loud. It is hard to imagine the US culture 100 years ago, but this makes it real.

Sentimental and funny

The narrator had excellent voices for each of the characters. The piano music at the beginning of each chapter was too loud though.
