Just Who Does This Child Take After? When I was little and clever, and kind and
pretty everyone knew who I looked like? Now that I?m big and crazy and insolent
and stupid, they just sit and sigh and wonder: Just who does this child take
after?! This is how Éva Janikovszky?s teenage hero complains to readers, and if
those readers happen to have hit teenage recently, then they?ll get plenty of
laughs out of the kind of things that grown-ups keep going on about. On the
other hand, should they have survived this troublesome period and gone on to be
parents themselves, they will delight in discovering that they are not the only
ones battling with teenage kids. This bestselling book still never fails to
raise a smile with its fresh prose and comical illustrations. Times may be
changing but one thing never will: those terrible teens! Translated by: Andrew
