The sequel to Cheaper By The Dozen. The true story of life - now very different - in the rambling Gilbreth house. When the youngest was two and the oldest eighteen, Dad died and Mother bravely took over their efficiency advisory business - helping factories fine-tune their assembly lines for maximum output at minimum cost. With Dad gone, everyone has to pitch in and pinch pennies to keep the family together. The resourceful clan rises to every crisis - whether it's battling chicken pox, giving the boot to an unwelcome boyfriend, or even meeting the President. And the few distasteful things they can't overcome - like the dreaded castor oil - they swallow with good humor and good grace.
