Story4.5 out of 5 stars 294
When she moved her young family to her husband's hometown in northern France, Karen Le Billon expected some cultural adjustment. But she didn't expect to be lectured for slipping her fussing toddler a snack, or to be forbidden from packing her older daughter a school lunch. Karen is intrigued by the fact that French children happily eat everything-from beets to broccoli, from salad to spinach - while French obesity rates are a fraction of what they are in North America.

Very interesting concept- French eating outside of France

I thought the story very interesting, mostly the ending where they attempted to bring the French eating customs into the North American eating culture. Interesting way of adapting to the styles here and there.
The one thing is that the narrator's voice had a very strange accent on the French passages, almost like Indian accented English instead of French accented English. Not awful but definitely took me out of the story a bit.

His voice is so luscious and perfect for reading love poems! Would have liked more Shakespeare though.
