All my children

In the 25 years since Agnes Nixon, daytime television's most prolific and enduring storyteller, created All My Children, her hit series has become a national institution by telling stories about characters who are as familiar to its viewers as their own family and friends. To an audience of millions, grappling with issues as real as AIDS and unwanted pregnancy, Pine Valley is their larger-than-life home away from home. Even the name, Pine Valley, evokes images of wholesome, small-town America. But to anyone who has tuned in to watch, it soon becomes clear that beyond the white picket fences in this quiet suburban community lies a world of deception and scandal that has intrigued one of the largest and most loyal followings in television. All My Children's strong suit has always been family dramas-romance and rivalry between the Martins and Tylers, the Cortlandts and the Chandlers-and touching, turbulent love stories between unforgettable couples like Tara and Phil, Nina and Cliff, Jenny and Greg, Erica and Jeff, Tom, Mike, Adam, Jeremy, Travis, Jackson and Dimitri. Now here's a keepsake album to remember it by: All My Children: The Complete Family Scrapbook. With the full cooperation of the ABC Television Network, this handsome collector's volume, filled with hundreds of archival photographs, behind-the scenes-anecdotes and little-known facts about the show, takes the viewer a back through the years to re-experience the entire saga from the very beginning to the present day. In a page-turner storyline dramatizing the plot year by year, you'll find out who did what to whom and why for a quarter of a century. You'll relive the love affairs and meet all the rogues and vixens you love to hate. From heartache to heartbreak and back again, welcome to Pine Valley and to the lives of All My Children.
