THE TRUTH ABOUT FAMILIES

Families are funny things. They can be large or small, normal or crazy, fun or embarrassing - families are all different. Sometimes your family is just great to be with, and sometimes, well.........

The truth is, you can't choose your family. You just have to learn to live with them!

reviews

"This is a cheerful, funny, colourful and truthful book. We can all find at least one member of our own family here."
CAROUSEL SPRING 2002

"Funny and clever and quite honest about what it's like to live in a family - the differences in people, the fights and rows, and the fun times too. While large families are emphasized, there are bits about small families too, and the complications of step-families. However the main themes are to do with inter-relationships, how people interact with each other, not the relationships themselves. Good fun, good bright comic style illustrations with lots of speech bubbles. 'The truth about families is that you can't choose them."
