My Beautiful Mommy : $14

My Beautiful Mommy is a book which helps plastic surgery patients explain their "transformations" to their children. Yes, I think this is pretty outrageous. I don't really want to debate the pros and cons of a book like this. Just thought this was an interesting find if you haven't heard about it already. Frankly, perhaps there is a need for a book like this. If parents are having plastic surgery, we all know books help children understand tough questions, and if this helps the kids understand their world than so be it. Honestly the real issue is our culture's obsession with being thin and beautiful. As a mother of a little girl this really worries me as I fear that someday my own beautiful little angel will have a poor self image due to societal pressures.
