This book is better than the other one. I liked them answering the emails. I enjoyed this book because it was simple. It was really nice to not want to throw the book across the room. ( )

Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar, the stars of TLC's 19 Kids and Counting, are raising one of America's largest families. This book is their story, how they met, how they live with a large family, and most importantly, how they have no debt (this is the part of the book that everyone should read). I found their lives to be fascinating. Sprinkled in their story are family recipes, homeschooling and organizing tips, and questions and answers with the children. Switching from Jim Bob's perspective to Michelle's made the book slightly confusing, and could have been edited. ( )

I will admit that I do find the Duggars fascinating. I know that their life isn't for me, but I don't think they do a bad job with it. While I like them, I do not like the way this book is written. I found the going back and forth between two writers to be confusing. The children's answers sprinkled throughout should have been in a seperate chapter. Certain parts of the story were repeated again and again, and didn't really need to be. I think it would have been much better with a heavy does of editing. ( )

Epigraph
Lo, children are an heritage of the Lord: and the fruit of the womb is his reward.

— Psalm 127:3
Dedication
To our children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren, and all the generations to come.
Our vision, and our earnest prayer, is that you will follow the Lord with your whole heart and life, and that you will strive to make a difference in the world for good. If what we've written here encourages you in that direction, even long after we're gone, our greatest hope will have been fulfilled.
First words
It's morning at the Duggar home, and today is a very special day for our big, busy family.
