Book Reviews of The Terrible Thing That Happened at Our House
Book Review: A true classic
Summary: 5 Stars
An absolute must for any mother that has ever had to do the unspeakable to her family-return to work! I have been reading this story literally for two generations, to my kids and now to my grandkids. It is just the best! The kids will probably not get it, but when you are done reading it Moms, you will feel great. Very fun and very funny.
