Review: The Grass Is Always Greener over the Septic Tank

The Grass Is Always Greener over the Septic Tank by Erma Bombeck
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

This book is a snapshot of suburban living in the 1970s written by nationally known humorist Erma Bombeck. The author pokes fun, at her own expense, at family life after moving out of the city and into a suburban enclave where every house looks the same, mothers volunteered for PTA and Girl Scout cookie leaders, dads manicured their lawns with meticulous precision, and children ran wild through the neighborhood. This book may have been written 50 years ago, but much of the humorous commentary still resonates with modern families.

I read this book in the 70s. It was funny then and I still chuckle today.
