The third is about getting rich and raising children, also about everyday family life, plus a space-age element to build wealth. The fourth is a bit funny, but also quite good and very heartwarming, focusing on everyday family life, with a female lead who has excellent values. This one has male leads who all love the female lead. Most of these are novels from the 1970s, and I've read them all many times.
