A rollicking family of nine children, offspring of an eccentric professor father and unflappable mother, paint, spackle, and eventually rebuild a dozen tumbledown old houses in their Midwest college town in the 1960s and '70s-and, at odd moments, break into song, because they sing as they work, like a von Trapp family in painters caps.
