Chicago, IL-August 2, 2007- Is there an uneasiness that tugs at you from your
interior? What is the meaning and purpose of life? Do you want to live in the
world without being of the world? How can one achieve true happiness and
fulfillment? These are questions addressed in BETTER BY THE DOZEN, PLUS TWO,
subtitled Anecdotes and a Philosophy of Life from a Family of Sixteen, written by
James and Kathleen Littleton, parents in the process of raising fourteen living
children.

This unique and inspiring book unmasks many of the fundamental errors of our time,
with the authors offering a concrete hierarchy of values or priorities to live by in
the midst of what they describe as a seriously disordered modern dominant culture.
It is designed to be an appealing and interesting read for anyone and everyone
intended to move the reader to serious reflection on the state of his or her life,
and to hopefully come away with some helpful resolutions of a spiritual and/or
practical nature.

The Littletons offer experience and insights into subjects including faith, family,
hierarchy of values, marriage, motherhood, openness to life, miscarriage, formation
of children, service, dealing with difficulties of life, and the importance of
having a sense of humor

"Here's a family you won't forget. And reading about them will brighten your day and
deepen your faith. I was blessed in meeting them because their three oldest girls
attended or attend Ave Maria University-and we're hoping the 11 younger siblings
will follow in their footsteps! You'll find 16 reasons for being joyfully
counter-cultural."

"In Better by the Dozen, Plus Two James and Kathleen Littleton have written a truly
profound book that may change your family forever. Through Scripture, Catechism,
family anecdotes, and simple "how to" practical advice, this work will challenge and
inspire all families both large and small. Throughout the book one thing is clear;
the Littleton family perseveres and thrives because of God's Sacramental Grace. Read
this book and be encouraged. Read this book and be awed. Read this book and learn
how you, too, can raise a family firmly rooted in Faith and Love for Christ and His
Church."

"For those looking to invite God not just to their wedding, but also into their
marriage, this is a must read. The Littleton's personal journey in striving to be
open to God's will, and then to live his will, offers the inspiration and tools to
accomplish this in our own lives."
