Summary: Another winner of a book
Review: After reading Confessions of an organized homemaker , and this one on the organized family I am amazed at how much I have learned. It teaches you to organize your laundry room to your garages, along with sporting gear and hobbies stuff. It goes into schedules for the whole family. and keeping everyone organized . Truely this is a great companion for her first book. You learn to handle the papers from school and mail coming into your home and how to get your children and husband into working with you and not against you. Now I am reading her book on Organizing my kitchen time...Just wait!

Summary: Very inspirational
Review: I enjoyed knowing that someone has been in the same boat I have. I went to one of her seminars and it was great. The thing that impressed me the most was that she is honestly one of the nicest people that I have ever met. I wish that more people were just like her.

Summary: greatest organizational book ever written.
Review: I loved her sense of humor and the way that she tied real life experiences into her subject matter. She really seemed to have learned by experience and hard work and I respect that. I would love to see how her children turned out.

Summary: Enjoyed this, Prefered Confessions of Organized Homemaker
Review: I really enjoyed Confession of an Organized Homemaker, but was tired of trying to do it all by myself, so I bought Confession of an Organized Family. There were some great tips on how to motivate others (husband and children) by setting an example, hold family meetings to discuss chores etc, and how to organize a playroom/familyroom. But the rest was mostly summary of the other book and suggestions to read the other book. PS. Don't let the book's titles fool you... I am a full time working mother not SAHM. And really did eventually get my stay at home husband to take on the 4-bucket strategy. It just took TIME.

Summary: Very Useful
Review: I would put forth that Confessions of a Happily Organized Family is more about the how to of organizing. She provides a wealth of suggestions for storage and organizing solutions that are not very expensive and easy to make and/or buy. I rate it five stars for the usefulness. My only thought about this is that much of this you can do yourself without buying the book.

However, if you are not sure where to begin or need ideas on storage, this is an excellent book. However, if you are interested in organizing your home and want a starter book, I would suggest you consider her other book Confessions of a Happily Organized Homemaker. In this book she discusses the whys, how tos, and what fors of organizing every aspect of your life. Also, it seems to me that much of what is in this the Family book is also in the Housewife book. Either way, both are good.
