Johnny Rabbitt's Amazing St. Louis Trivia Book

By Ron "Johnny Rabbitt" Elz, Johnny Rabbitt, Ron Elz

Book Overview

Counting Chickens is not a how-to, but a how-we-do-it ? raising 8 kids and 4 chickens in the city. The chickens provide an amusing and sometimes instructive side-story to the core of the book: having a lot of kids in world filled with ever-shrinking families. In the book, I reveal the ?big secret? of big families and the answer to many harried parent?s question: ?8 kids? My God, how do you do it?? Ultimately, having a large family can be easier than a small one, and is in many ways a sign of optimism in a world of uncertainty. Based on a series of columns published in my weekly newspaper, Counting Chickens tracks the joys and problems of raising a lot of kids from the joy of birth to the agony of teenagers. Meanwhile, I also track our family?s adventure in backyard-poultry-raising, And how sometimes the lessons overlap.
