Mrs Large's attempts to have five minutes peace, her vain efforts to get out of the house all in one piece for a night out, her absurd notion that elephants can diet and the farce of Mr Large's birthday, are all contained in this collection of four Large Family stories.
"synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
Jill Murphy has been hitting the nail of family life well and truly on the head with the everyday adventures of the rather marvellous Large family--the long-suffering Mrs Large with her erstwhile hubby Mr Large doing battle with Lester, Laura and the baby.
The Large Family Album brings together four classic Large stories in one bumper volume.Five Minutes Peace, with Mrs Large desperately trying to escape the family for just a little while, is an absolute classic; All In One Piece sees Mr and Mrs Large trying to escape for a night out without the kids; A Piece of Cake has Mrs Large putting the entire family on a diet and A Quiet Night In that Mrs Large has planned for her husband's birthday turns out to be not quite what she had in mind...
A fantastic collection of picture stories, beautifully written and illustrated with a classic wit that will strike a chord in every family, The Large Family Album is one book that no home should be without. (Age 4 and over) --Susan Harrison
"Family life is beautifully observed with a humour that appeals to both adult and child." --The Daily Telegraph
