Cheaper By the Dozen Free Audiobook Download by Frank B. Gilbreth


This audiobook tells the story of Frank and Ernestine Gilbreth, a husband-and-wife team who revolutionized efficiency in their now-famous twelve children. The duo devised many new time management practices including such revolutionary devices as "the Mother's Helper" and "the Scrub Board" - utensils that helped them reduce the time needed to do even mundane tasks by up to 90%!

This audiobook is an excellent example of how a business book can be converted into an audiobook. It has been translated by the author herself and reads by two different women, one younger and one older. The audiobook was produced with both sound effects and background music in a way that makes it feel like more than just reading words on a page.

One of the most interesting and humorous books I have ever read, this book really looks at the life of a family living on a farm. It shows how the work done by each member of the family, who are all highly educated in their own fields, is necessary to get the farm's daily routine completed. This was one of my favourite audiobooks because it really got me thinking about how I am contributing to my family and how we can work together better.

If you're looking for a great audiobook for children, then I highly recommend Cheaper By the Dozen narrated by Dana Ivey and Ernestine Gilbreth Carey. This is a great book that has probably been written in many different ways but none better than this. If you have never read this book before, it is about a family that runs 12 businesses. They make enough money to support their family of 12 and have time to spend with each other.

The way that Frank B. Gilbreth talks is the best way to listen to this book. I wish they could have done it with a different narrator, because there are many times when his voice is so gravelly, it's hard to understand what he is saying. It's almost as if he has a serious case of laryngitis.

This classic of efficiency provides a fascinating look at the work of Frank and Ernestine Gilbreth (1868-1944), an early 20th century American couple who revolutionized industrial efficiency. The Gilbreths spent their whole lives studying how to make things go faster, making them some of the most productive Americans in history.
