First, recent fan comments, like from the last several months:

"Somebody's Always Hungry is filled with short, profoundly insightful and funny stories about the insanity (and joy) of raising young kids. You will rock with laughter and tears as you realize: 'SOMEBODY FINALLY UNDERSTANDS ME!'
Ruth Elliot, July, 2008 on GoMommyGo.com

"Juliet Johnson comforts moms with humorous stories that both the newbies and veterans will relate to. Most importantly, Johnson reminds us that we are not alone in our day to day struggles. If one mom went through it, a million more will. Moms will find that "Somebody’s Always Hungry" is exemplary of the growing human spirit and that sometimes surrendering against our expectations is the only way to move forward. A wonderful read that will take you on a familiar journey though one mom’s trials and tribulations, you will fall in love with Somebody’s Always Hungry immediately!"
Linda Swain, June, 2008 on MomsOnTheMove.com

"Juliet mines motherhood's golden moments with laughs, tenderness, and a crystal clear recognition of the humor and chaos inherent in raising small children. This is a must-read for every new mother and father--a guidebook to living the joys of parenthood."
Don Vandervort, May, 2008 in HomeTips.com

"Reading Someone’s Always Hungry made me appreciate what I have and giggle at the same time. I highly recommend it."
Jerseygirl, April, 2008, New Jersey, in Dirty Little Secret, a momsblog

"I’ve read all the sample essays and just think they’re fabulous! Her essays are all very well written and you can tell this is her labour of love (or should I say her other labour of love). Thanks for sharing your work Juliet and good luck to you!"
Melissa, April, 2008 on a Canadian blog called Having Patience

"Juliet is the Bionic Mother -- she can pick up the toys in seconds flat, hear Cheerios falling to the floor from two rooms away, see naughty behavior behind her, yell at 150 dB, and write an insanely humorous and entertaining book all without breaking a sweat."
Prescott Carlson, Editor, The Imperfect Parent, April, 2008

"You will love this book and the children, Emma and Nathan, whose worlds we enter into. You will want to share it with all the women in your life. You just will. Trust me."
Chris, April, 2008, Baltimore in RealWriter



And comments on Juliet's stories in various publications ...

Fan Comments about Julie's story OLD YELLER:


"Oh, that was wonderful. I love knowing that I'm not the only one who yells because it's required, not because I really give a damn about him peeing on the outside of some building or climbing up the slide backwards again or whatever. Thanks for a great read!..."

"Thank you - I really thought I was the only one who yelled and felt this way, until now..."

"I too am grateful to hear that I'm not the only one who sounds like a bullhorn when it comes to communicating with my 7-year old and 5-year old boys. I know I'm tired of hearing myself yell so I'm sure they are. I appreciate hearing such an honest experience from a real parent..."

"My god...I think you wrote everything I feel EVERY day. Before kids. never yelled. barely talked. Now, with my 22 month old and my 3 1/2 year old I YELL ALL THE TIME. No hair pulling. Stop hitting. I don't care if you want to hug her, she doesn't like it. I don't care if you love her. (Can't believe I said that one). I just want to stop yelling...and I have tried...But "now, now, sweetums, we can't play in the road" just doesn't seem as effective as "WHAT ARE YOU DOING! STOP! NEVER PLAY ON THE ROAD--YOU WANT TO GET HIT BY A CAR???" sorry for such a wordy fan comment...just struck a cord with me..."
