Would you like to have 11 siblings?: Cheaper by the Dozen is a good book for children who like true stories. It is about a family of 14 people and 12 of them are children. My favorite character is Frank. I like Frank because he is independent. The funniest part of the book is when they find Mikes athletic cup in the dish washer. You should read Cheaper by the Dozen.
One of my favorites: A book that I have read no less than 10 times. It's entertaining and insightful and really a timeless story (although part of its charm is the historical information it provides too). It deals with subjects like family closeness, female empowerment, importance of education, and the loss of a loved one, all with humorous anecdotes and touching stories. As a book that I read both as a child and an adult, I was suprised at things I had missed (or where over my head) in past reads and how much I still enjoyed it.

And the kids don't have allowances but they earn the money. I will not tell you how they get it, that is for you to find out. The book is also about how a family has a tough time in a new place. I personally would recommend this book to a friend. It is funny, sad a bit. Over all it is a totally good book.
