Julia's Child by Sarah Pinneo is an entertaining, contemporary novel about a Mom of two small boys who quits the corporate world to start an organic food company for toddlers, called Julia's Child.
At times it made me laugh, yet I found it somewhat contrived and predictable, with nothing special about the writing or the characters. Some of it was simply hard to believe.
However, Pinneo does capture the feeling of a harried Mom of young children trying to make all the right decisions for their health, while creating an income and finding time to actually spend with her family. This is the part of the novel that rang true.
A passable debut.
