Editorial Review: “You’d think a Miss America swimsuit winner would feel completely confident about her body, right? Not always! So I decided to write the book I wish I’d had as a teen and in college— an honest, funny, practical, medically accurate, totally reassuring guide to how women’s bodies actually look, smell, feel, behave, and change. Alongside real-deal photographs of women just like you and me (no airbrushing, no supermodels, no kidding) you’ll find medical pictures of things you need to be able to recognize, true confessions by yours truly, and the encouragement you need to appreciate the uniqueness, strength, and beauty of your body. What are you waiting for?”
–Nancy Redd


From fashion magazines to taboo Web sites, curious young women have access to tons of old wives’ tales about and thousands of airbrushed and inaccurate images of the female body—misinformation and harmful portrayals that can lead to low self-esteem, self-destructive acts, or even disturbing plastic surg...

Great Book for young women, 2008-06-06
I saw the book at my local library and wanted to purchase it. It is a very truthful book about women's bodies. I recommend it to young women who are having problems with body image, etc. It talks about loving your body despite your flaws, because face it we all have flaws with our bodies.

Body Drama, 2008-06-04
I bought this book for my daughter to try to negate the negative images the media portrays of young women. We need more books like this.

Good book for every woman who has doubted her body, 2008-05-30
Very interesting and full of informative facts. Could have been a little bit more extreme for me example the cellulite picture. I would've really liked to see more emphisis on that issue being someone who suffers from it. Everything else was very reasurring and good to know. I really liked the medical views also. Thanks for writing such a real and honest book!!

Really Real, 2008-05-28
This is a great book for anyone- not just teens. Adults are self conscoius of their bodies too, and do not necessarily know everything there is to know! I would highly reccommend this to anyone.

A great resource for insecure mid teens, 2008-05-25
As a mother of an early teen and an Adolescent Medicine Specialist, I have found this a great resource. I have reccommended it to mothers who have asked me how they can address their daughters' body insecurities or hygiene issues. I've brought the book out when patients have asked me embarassing questions about the appearance of their bodies. It celebrates normal and shows young women what normal is, rather than the idealized normal that the media or textbooks shows them.
