Babymoon Synopsis

'Sharp, witty and not a word out of place . . . think David Sedaris on folic acid.' READINGS MONTHLYShe's back. And this time, she's not alone . . . Now living in Melbourne, Isabelle and Dr Jack are expecting their first child. And, naturally, Isabelle is the very model of a calm Earth Mother-to-be . . . Or she would be if she wasn't consumed with anxiety about finding her pelvic floor, giving birth to a human-eel hybrid or the horrifying prospect of having a child named Leroy Marvin. Even worse, as Isabelle's tummy grows, so does the distance between her and her adored Dr Jack who, it seems, has quite different priorities . . . But with support from a host of new mothers including her friend Fran and her sister Audrey, as well as her fellow gallerina Doug, just maybe Isabelle can make it through pregnancy and childbirth with her dignity, her relationship and some other more private bits intact. Then again, maybe not.'You'll love their journey to parenthood, told with the author's famous sense of humour and style.'WOMAN'S DAY 'Her insights into the emotions of a soon-to-be mother are spot on.'CANBERRA TIMES'You can expect lot of laughs with La'Brooy's latest.'FAMOUS
