Pick Up What Things?

My parents subscribed to the Des Moines Register when I was young and "The Family Circus" was one of their feature cartoons. I loved it, Keane was able to capture the joy and frustrations of family life in a way that few others could. Therefore, reading this book was a trip back to my childhood, viewed through the lens of a parent. That altered view made the cartoons even more entertaining as I recognized my daughter in many of the actions of the children of the "Circus." She too was lovable and frustrating when she was young, often at the same time.
