Amazon review:

"A warm, engaging piece and also extremely funny. It takes place in 1957 and makes obvious allusions to the family comedies of the 1950s such as "Father Knows Best" and, above all, "Leave it to Beaver" and is presented in an emotionally touching manner. Cleverly constructed with a number of laugh-out-loud lines."
