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.
