Summary: Our family makes reference to this book every day...
Review: The Brawners do a wonderful job of helping us understand the different personalities in a family, in a style that is both very insightful and fun. You might call it Myers-Briggs distilled to a family setting, using animal types for personality descriptions that even an elementary school child can understand.How would members of your family each react to falling off the Empire State Building? Who would say "We're dead!" Who would say "We'll be dead in 30 SECONDS!" Who would say nothing, but reach out for a paw to hold? And, who would say "So far, so good!" (me). We've learned a lot about family relationships in a 1-beaver, 2-otter household. The Brawners draw on experiences as teacher, school principal, christian sports camp director, mother and father to deliver a wonderfully enjoyable, lifelong tool for fostering love and understanding at home. We've also given copies to several friends, and enjoy watching our kids' relationships grow as their 'zoo' personalities evolve. You'll want to share this one.
