The Duggars: 20 and Counting! is a behind-the-scenes look at the supersize family that fascinates millions of television viewers around the world. From Idaho to Istanbul, people want to know how Arkansas parents Michelle and Jim Bob Duggar efficiently and lovingly manage nineteen happy, homeschooled children without going into debt—or losing their minds! This is an entertaining and enlightening collection of stories, photos, recipes, tips, traditions, and practical ideas designed to answer the questions of the curious, such as: Why do you have so many children? How do you provide for your family financially? How do you handle mealtimes? Transportation? Laundry? Birthdays? How are your children so well behaved? Why do all your children have names that begin with J? Since their first documentary broke viewership records on the Discovery Health Channel, the Duggars have appeared in American and international news media, sharing their rock-solid faith and their overriding belief that "children are a blessing from God." In this audio book, Jim Bob and Michelle share their story, beginning with their own childhoods. They reveal how their growing-up years shaped their philosophy of parenting. It continues with tales of their big, busy family, whose televised documentaries and frequent appearances in news shows and newspapers have created an international following. The Duggars share, with humility and humor, the family routines and guidelines they've learned through biblical study and trial and error—ideas that can help make your home a place of peace, love, and support: Financial lessons for debt-free living, organizing systems for a clutter-free home, homeschooling methods and schedules, training tips for little ones, relationship builders for older children, and favorite Duggar family resources

      Listening to Michelle Duggar read the Duggar family biography is like sitting in a living room and having a conversation with a gentle and soft-spoken woman who is in awe of what the Lord has done in her family's life. You can imagine the twinkle in her eye as she fondly recounts stories about the early years of her marriage to Jim Bob. Likewise, you can hear the joy in her voice as she discusses each of their children. Far from being a perfect family, the Duggars deal with many of the same challenges as the rest of us. After your "chat" with Michelle, you will certainly have gleaned greater insights into parenting. T.D. (c) AudioFile 2011, Portland, Maine
