Customer Reviews of Belles on Their Toes
This book is funnier (if possible) than its prequel! If you enjoyed Cheaper by the Dozen, reading this book is a must! After Father Gilbreth dies, Mother is left to carry on with her dozen children. The hilarious (and sometimes ridiculous) escapades in this book range from Tom, (the cook) having trouble dosing the Gilbreth clan with castor oil, to first dates and general instruction for the girls by their brothers on how NOT to get kissed! This book is HILARIOUS! Trust me - this is one you DON'T want to miss! Settle yourself down in your favorite easy chair and laugh yourself silly with the amusing escapades of the Gilbreth Clan!
A great sequel
I enjoyed this as much as 'Cheaper by the Dozen', the first book by this sister-brother team. I loved that this book featured a strong mother who held things together after the passing of her husband...and became a strong career-woman herself. I think that this type of story is often missing from our libraries of historical classics, but of course these kinds of stories are as much (if not more) a part of our history as other classics we have all read.
Better Than Cheaper By The Dozen
I tink this book was much better than cheaper by the dozen, because the children where more grown= up and the things that happened weren't as exasterating. I don't like reading about the foolish things little chidren do, so the romances of Anne and Ern kept me happy. I also like reading about the way Mother broke through all the red tape because she was a woman. Great Book, funny escapeds,rayed 5 out of 5
