The Raising of Venerable Manor & Other Oddball Tales of an Offbeat Family

Enjoy the wacky adventures of the Venerable family – Jack, Marjorie, Sissy, Ben, Willy, Timmy and Darlene – as seen through the eyes of young skeptical Ben Venerable, Marjorie and Jack's oldest son.

An  offbeat family if there ever was one! Patriarch Jack offers amazing, colorful and continuous improvements to the Venerable house with his own unique brand of handiwork – all the while finagling to beat the system!

You will more than likely see yourself or your family in these situations or among the many colourful characters … and then laugh even louder!

“The narrative voice is confident and authentic and entertaining. The stories are well-crafted and engaging and funny. I had  intended to read part of it and then return to the rest later, but I finished it at one sitting because I was fully caught up in the world described and found myself attached to the characters.”  - A.H.
