I thought this book would be sort of a memoir of the family: this is how the parents met, this is what the wedding was like, this is how we felt when we had our twins, this is how we felt when we found out that one of them was a little person; etc. (Maybe all that stuff was on the TV show, and I missed it.) Instead, this is a kind of self-help book for parents.

I find this show fascinating and loved the book. I felt the book was their honest feelings and how they live their life.
