 A role model for us all Feb 24, 2006
By Debra Galant
What other white-knuckled driver would buy an RV, cross the country with three young kids, give them all journals to write in, and then turn it into a book? Julia and her book are an inspiration for anyone who wants to combine adventure and motherhood.

 Both amusing and enlightenting Feb 12, 2006
By Patricia Jeres
"Patty Jeres"
On the face of it, RV There Yet? is a collection of travel anecdotes that go from amusing to downright hilarious. The reader comes away laughing uproariously (there are genuine I Love Lucy-style moments on this wacky trip,) and questioning the sanity of the parents, then wanting to be adopted into their family. Truly, this diary of a zany adventure also provides a portrait of a loving, charming family as they create lasting memories, albeit many of them gloriously inexplicable.

Family Fun Feb 07, 2006
By Julie A. Zichelli
"Julie"
This is an inspiring account of a family's cross country RV trip. Each family member shared their experiences from their own perspective. It described various sites in a fun although sometimes frustrating way. Couldn't they just have left earlier? I felt their frustration at just missing out on various opportunities. It also pointed to the vulnerability one experiences in the desert where cell phones don't work and help is far away.

Very entertaining! Feb 06, 2006
By Thomas Storer
This is a fun read--the author and her family, in their headlong rush across the country, come across as a close-knit, likeable unit. The combination of a grandiose plan--a coast-to-coast drive with an immovable deadline--with hasty planning and unreliable vehicles makes the trip constantly teetering on the edge of becoming a comedy of errors. They make it, but I kept thinking, "If only they'd left earlier they'd have had time to stop and admire the view!" An endearing tale full of gumption and innocence.
 Can't decide Oct 26, 2009
By D. Dorman
Just finished the book, and a bit on the fence with this one. A couple of times hateful things were written by family members, and I was wondering why you left the RV with a fridge full of food when there was a comment about how bad the fridge smelled when you purchased the RV. It had it's entertaining moments. (What the heck did you expect to find in Fort Stockton, Texas)
