Dearie: The Remarkable Life of Julia Child

Depth. Whatever you think you know about Julia Child, the chances are excellent that you’ll learn something new if you read Bob Spitz’ fine biography titled, Dearie: The Remarkable Life of Julia Child. When I picked up this book, I expected to skim a few pages and get bored quickly. Instead, I became intrigued by the depth and complexity that Spitz reveals about Julia Child. Spitz allows readers to become part of the highs and lows of her life: deeply felt loving relationships alongside strong disappointments and great losses. Child’s hard work and optimism provide a great model for anyone who wants to live life to the fullest. When you put the book down, drink a toast to Julia, and eat something yummy, especially with those people you hold dear. Rating: Four-star (I like it) Click here to purchase Dearie from amazon.com.
