Get ready for another rollicking reading ridewhen you cant tell if the tears you suddenly find on your cheeks are from laughing or from crying. Dorcas Smucker once again writes so vividly about life with her six kids that youll be convinced you have a place at their table, your own seat in their van, a list of chores with your name at the top, and a small hankering for troublejust like one of the family. She and her kids are innocently funny and usually well-meaning, trying hard to manage all their energy and their peculiar points of view. Jenny asks questions endlessly like, Whats inside your lips? Matt has serial obsessionsanimals to astronomy. Ben drops caterpillars down the gaps in the porch floor and has a 12-year collection of scars. Emily moves effortlessly from being a whirling Queen of the Smuckers to posing as a pompous science lecturer. Amy phones home to report that, new york City is not dangerous, and We girls walk outside at night. 9-year-old Steven from Kenya joins the family, soon demonstrating the same compulsion as his new brothers by throwing balls in the living room. What makes this collection a stand-out is Dorcas Mother voice. With each new development, shes clear about the outcome shes hoping for, less certain about how shell accomplish it, willing to confess the way things unfolded.
