More About the Author
Product Description
Product Description
An enchanting and witty book, sparkling with humour, warmth and a sheer love of life, this is a tour de force of comic writing. It tells the tale of 12 months when the author's life changes forever. Putting away her career-woman's Filofax, English-born Louise, living in Bordeaux with her French husband, takes a plain notebook and starts to write her hilarious and often moving diary. It is to be shared with new baby, Benjamin, described as 'the best product of European Union - who arrived with a yell, but no cricket bat or string of onions.' Deciding to take advantage of a government grant, they leave their city flat and rent a stone farmhouse with soft blue shutters and 20 acres of farmland. A year with no cash, one baby, umpteen animals and Big Dreams, this book is a A Year in Provence and Bridget Jones' Diary rolled neatly into one and can't fail to make you smile.
About the Author
Louise lives in France with her two sons, Ben and Hugo and their brown labradorable rogue Louie. She has recently written a unique book for young children about family trees called The Book We Cooked.

Couldnt put this book down , its wonderful . Written in diary form , but it flows well unlike some other books of this format. A descriptive tale told with much love , starting when they live in a flat , then move to their rented farmhouse and the ups and downs of their new life. This book is a must if you love France . Hope there will be a sequel !
