Art Linkletter's House Party was a staple of afternoon TV in the 50s, and one of the regular features was his interviews with young children, who were candid, sometimes embarassingly so. Linkletter's favorite question was 'What did your mother tell you NOT to say?' and of course the kids would immediately spill the beans about family secrets and other taboo subjects. This book is endlessly entertaining reading for everyone who enjoys a good laugh.
