Praise

"A decisively unsoppy account of a typically dismal English childhood, complete with cramped lodgings and brutish relatives, [told] briskly and without self-pity....The rest of the book is a jolly romp through an England that no longer exists....[Julie Andrew's approach is restrained, and the quality of her prose such that you are reminded that she is already an established children's author." - Emma Brockes 03/30/2008

"[Julie Andrew's] lovely new autobiography, HOME, reflects the very qualities that first made the working-class English singer a star 45 years ago:: intelligence, gentle humor, and a clear, surprisingly powerful voice....No word yet on a sequel; with any luck, we face but a brief intermission before the glittering second act." - Jennifer Reese 03/28/2008
