I was browsing the WILBOR site for a light-hearted audio book when I came across this title. I recognized Viorst's name as a famous children's author (If I have heard of a children's author he/she must be famous!). This is not a new book but the story is timeless - especially in today's economy with so many boomerang children. In this case the return of a son to his parents' home was only temporary. Viorst describes this book as "An Almost Completely Honest Account of What Happened to Our Family When Our Youngest Son, His Wife, Their Baby, Their Toddler, and Their Five-Year-Old Came to Live with Us for Three Months." That really says it all. Viorst thought she could handle it because her children and their families came for a visit every year. But 90 days is more like a sentence than a visit.
