I enjoyed this book. It's an exagerated but humorous description of the "start" of the suburbs. A good laugh.
From back cover
It's the expose to end all exposes--the truth about the suburbs: where they planted trees and crabgrass came up, where they planted the schools and taxes came up, where they died of old age trying to merge onto the freeway and where they finally got sex out of the schools and back into the gutters

Erma Bombeck at her funniest! For me a nostalgic look back at my childhood in the suburbs.

Erma was always able to see humor in the every day things in her life.
I identified with a lot of her stories and her honesty.

Funny book about living in the suburbs.
From the back of the book:
The Grass is always greener over the septic tank is the expose to end all exposes--the truth about the suburbs: Where they planted trees and crabgrass came up, where they planted schools and taxes came up, where they died of old age trying to merge onto the freeway, and where they finally got sex out of the schools and back into the gutters.
