Professional Review:
From the stars of TLC's critically acclaimed reality show Little People, Big World comes heartfelt advice to help today's families overcome life's obstacles together and grow closer in the process.

The Roloffs are no ordinary family. Parents Matt and Amy are little people raising four children: a pair of teenage twins, Jeremy and Zachary, one of whom is average size and one who is little; preteen daughter, Molly; and the youngest, Jacob. Being part of this unique family -- where something as simple as shopping for back-to-school clothing can be a real challenge -- has presented no shortage of struggles, and in Little Family, Big Values the Roloffs share the values that have helped them and become the cornerstone of their bond.

Through family stories, each member of the family weighs in on the importance of these values in their life and the lessons -- sometimes hard -- they've learned in doing their best to live by them:

  • Amy tells of the decision she made, out of love for her family, to put her career as a teacher on hold and become a stay-at-home mom.
  • Matt shares how keeping faith that God has a plan for him has helped him tackle any family setbacks with confidence.
  • Jeremy describes the respect he feels for his brother Zach when he sees him on the soccer field giving players twice his size a run for their money.
  • Zachary recognizes his siblings' love for him when they willingly sacrifice a Christmas at home to be with him at the hospital for surgery.
  • Matt's mother, Peggy, reveals how his perseverance with a boyhood paper route helped him become the successful businessman he is today.

In these and other inspiring stories, the Roloffs show us why they've become such a beloved American family and offer advice on how all families can put these values into practice to achieve a greater level of love, respect, and understanding -- no matter what their size.

   Summary: The best isn't always the biggest!
Matt Roloff has told a story of truth,and some hard facts of being a little person. If you didn't already know that he was a little person then you'd never pick it up from his day-to-day stories;not counting the health stories of his life. Amy has a heart of pure gold,with lots of love and persistance and patience...not just with Matt,but with her life and kids in general.The two of them,along with help from the grandparents have done an absolute fantastic job of raising the kids,and keeping it real for them,along with keeping their feet on the ground. Those children have a absolute feeling as to how their parents ARE different,but 'so what',as to quote Tyra Banks. I tip my cap to the Roloff's as to the absolute best job they have done in raising their family and staying sane in the process...
which is all that any of ALL of us with children want.

   Summary: Little Family, Big Values
Very good book - we love watching the Roloffs on TV and enjoyed reading the book. Every family should read it!

   Summary: Amazing!!!!
My daughter and I truly enjoyed this book. This family is amazing and their values are wonderful. We watch their TV show every episode and it is so heartwarming to see what this family has accomplished and the values that Matt and Amy teach their kids. If everyone could see this family as they see each other, it would be great. Matt, Amy and Zach may be little people, BUT they've never let that get in their way of success in all they do. Many people in the world could really learn from just reading this book about a truly wonderful, Christian family that puts their feelings and values on the table for everyone to learn from. I would recommend this read to all and I plan to purchase Matt's other book as well. Best of luck in everything - Matt, Amy, Jeremy, Zach, Molly and Jacob! Thanks for sharing your life with all of us.
