Time Out for Happiness

After reading "Cheaper by the Dozen and "Belles on Their Toes", I really wanted to learn more about the amazing Gilbreth family. Written by Frank B. Gilbreth, Jr., it's a more detailed story of the patriarch of the Gilbreth family, Frank B. Gilbreth, Sr. His outstanding career is highlighted, and the author seems to spend a great deal of time making sure his father gets proper credit for his landmark work in motion study. He succeeds, and entertains and amazes his reader in the process. He also shares additional stories about the 12 children, the unusual relatives, and other people who influenced their lives. The book is also a glowing tribute to his mother, Lillian, who partnered with her husband and then took over the reins upon his death.
