Family Words
A Dictionary of the Secret Language of Families

By Paul Dickson

ISBN: 1-933338-17-0, paper, 160 pages, $14.95


This fun to browse book is a collection of words and phrases
used and submitted by families from across the country.

For example, the Holmes family of Oakland calls them two-toes but you may know them as go-aheads, flippers or slappers - they're flip-flops, of course!

This book is fun for the whole family and will get you thinking about your own family's secret language.
