SIGNED Cheaper By The Dozen Inscribed by Ernestine Gilbreth Carey

Description: Signed and Inscribed by Ernestine Gilbreth Carey - Scarce SigningBelieve the book to be "Book of the Month Club" ? - small indented dot imprinted on rear board Please see pictures for more information and detail Cheaper by the Dozen was published in 1948 and was adapted as an eponymous 1950 film. The pair followed up with a successful sequel, Belles on Their Toes (1950), which was adapted as an eponymous 1952 film. Because they had shared their stories-and their lives-in the successful novels, Ernestine and Frank, Jr. decided to share evenly amongst their siblings and their mother all royalties from both books and the movies based on them. Gilbreth Carey would go on to publish three more novels during the 1950s, all semi-autobiographical: Jumping Jupiter (1952), Rings around Us (1956), an account of the events that happened from the night she met her future husband, to the night the two watched their daughter dance the Charleston as a high school freshman, and Giddy Moment (1958), though none of them would come close to the popularity of Cheaper by the Dozen.
