If there's one thing that holds true for family life, regardless of the era, it's... chaos! Fortunately, chaos offers endless inspiration for some truly wonderful, truly hysterical poetry. For example, there's the chaos of raising children. Do you have That Boy or That Girl in your home? You'll soon recognize them in this collection! As for the baby, is that not still the Bald-Headed Tyrant who rules the house? Then, of course, there's the chaos of cleaning house - or worse, moving it! In this collection, you'll get a rare glimpse of the Victorian home and family. Find out what happens when you bring home a fancy painting - and now the rest of the furniture just won't do! See how a husband copes with temporary bachelorhood. Explore some cooking tips and culinary couplets. Find out why Pappa can't compare with Little Mamma, and who is really the head of the house. Discover why a burglar should think twice before stealing a young wife's angel-food cake. See what life is like without a servant. These rhymes of home and family will keep you giggling - and are a reminder that family life hasn't changed that much in 100 years!
