The focus for Dr Xargle's latest investigation of the ways of Earthlings is families. A family he informs us, 'belong to each other whether they like it or not'. Both brand new and antique Earthlings participate in such unlikely events as 'bread-throwing contests' at the local pond, the winner being the one who hits the most ducks without falling in! Highly inventive, amusing stuff for junior readers and their Earthling families.
