How do you handle mealtimes? Transportation? Laundry? Birthdays?
How are your children so well behaved?
Why do all your children have names that begin with J?

Since their first documentary broke viewership records on the Discovery Health Channel, the Duggars have appeared in American and international news media, sharing their rock-solid faith and their overriding belief that "children are a blessing from God." In these pages, JimBod and Michelle share their story, beginning with their own childhoods. They reveal how their growing up years shaped their philosophy of parenting. It continues with tales of their big, busy family, whose televised documentaries and frequent appearances in news shows and newspapers have created an international following.
