101 Incredible Stories about Our Funny, Quirky, Lovable & “Dysfunctional” Families

Almost everyone thinks their own family is “dysfunctional” or at least has a dysfunctional member or two. These stories of wacky yet lovable relatives, holiday meltdowns, and funny foibles, along with more serious stories about abuse, controlling family members, and flare-ups, show readers that they aren’t alone. All in the Family is a quirky and fun holiday book, and a great bridal shower or wedding gift! Norman Rockwell’s famous “Freedom from Want” Thanksgiving family painting appears on the back cover and is lovingly parodied on the front, driving home the point that all our families, no matter how much we love them, are just a little dysfunctional!

This is a collection of personal experiences you won’t be able to put down! After all, who doesn’t have a bit of a dysfunctional family situation? The best part is you won’t be stressed out and anxiety ridden! You’ll get to sit back and actually giggle at not being alone in these wacky family situations.

Not only will you laugh at some of these stories, you’ll also be saddened, as some take on a much more serious note. This adds to the wide assortment of different family situations, and gives you insight to understand what others have and are currently going through.

I also enjoyed the cartoons inserted here and there throughout “All in the Family”, they do add that lil’ extra to the book.

This one is definitely a keeper!  I highly recommend purchasing your own copy!

There are several contributors and Authors to this book, and what is nice, is in the back of the book, it gives a short write-up on each one of them.

One Author that I’ve come to know as a friend and fellow blogger, is Susan Heim. She’s a very special person and has accomplished a lot in a short time.   Click on Susan’s Photo to learn more…
