This title is hilarious but it's more meaningful and easy to understand as it helps explain to the older mature woman that she is a great wise person but to learn to love yourself as you are and that you are great. I started out reading just the intro to look for a gift for my mom and I ended up being hooked and reading it as a preparation for my future as I age. It really makes you look forward to growing within yourself and helps not to be afraid, that it is not the end, but a new beginning and a great continuation or saga of who you are.
My mom has always been insecure about herself and has never showed love for herself. Especially as she got older, her identity as a mother, a wife, a sister, a friend changed and she began to feel lost. I got her this book and she thanks me from the bottom of her heart because it gave her back her love for herself and gave her tips and advice on how to make herself a better her. Its a great book and I recommend it for all women that don't know their worth or how to raise their confidence. A beautiful helpful book.

A great gift for a loving mother that needs to know she deserves the best and is a powerful, wonderful person. A very uplifting book for all mature women.
Don't you think a mother would be upset if you called her "older?" I don't know I just don't think mothers like to think of themselves or like being called "older"
Being a woman in my 50's, I understand the emotions that gather and this book I came across in a book store and I read the first couple pages and i so bought it. Its a great uplifting book that made me laugh because well, when its true, its funny! you gotta find humor in life or life would be dull and depressing. A great easy read.
