Customer Reviews

A great story for kids, unending comic relief for adults.

Sam is Mom Jo's right hand man. He has to take care of her, because she doesn't have a husband to do it for her. Sam and his sister Karen, their brother Georgie, and cousin, Blake, all live with Mom Jo, who is not really their mom at all, but their aunt. Being twelve, and the man of the house, Sam naturally knows what Mom Jo needs. She needs a husband. A handsome husband, (because Mom Jo is pretty) a rich husband, (because she deserves nice things) and a husband who likes kids, (since she has four.) But for some reason, all of the handsome, rich men Sam finds are scared away. What is it that Mom Jo says to make them leave? Why does she have to say it at all? And why doesn't it scare away that other man, Jill's Dad? He isn't handsome, and he must be really poor, 'cause he drives a beat up van. His kids (he has four too) are kind of fun, and he doesn't mind messy stuff, like fishing, and toad races, but he isn't rich, and besides, Sam isn't sure he want's to give up his place as right hand man. He had better take the bull by the horns before this gets out of hand!
