The Machovsky Household

Ask anyone in Melino who the best role model in town is, and they'll probably point to Percival Machovsky. A mustached bodybuilder, beloved teacher, and champion of the town's children, he seems larger than life. His wife Cheryl, a fellow teacher and devoted bookworm, shares both his love of learning and his belief in the next generation. Their eldest son Cedric has taken those values to heart, determined to become not just a good man, but a great one, like his father. As for Alfie, growing up surrounded by so much care and encouragement, the expectation is proving a little harder than anyone imagined.
