5.0 out of 5 stars This is an AWESOME Reference, March 30, 2000

This review is from: Christian Charm Course (teacher) (Paperback)

When I first laid eyes on the workbook, I fell in love with it. It gives a step-by-step guide into turning our little tomboys into princesses. It is fun to read and all teenage girls love it. Because of the Biblical background to assist in training our young girls, this is a perfect addition to your church library.

1.0 out of 5 stars An insult to Christian women, September 9, 2009

By 

J. Carrington - See all my reviews

This review is from: Christian Charm Course: Student's Book (Paperback)

This book is truly the most appalling book I have ever seen used in Christian homes and schools. The original copyright date is 1967 but it looks and reads more like 1937. The demands that it makes on young women are ridiculous and totally unfounded spiritually. The book states that a young lady should always have her hands clasped behind her back and never down at her sides. While standing, her feet should not point forward but instead one foot should be behind the other at an angle. While sitting, ankles should be linked together to the side and under the chair. (Which is actually very bad for healthy circulation.) The book is also an aid to eating disorders by emphasizing a girl's look and figure instead of simple healthy eating. A calorie guide is included and all of the ways to take measurements literally from head to toe. It's ridiculous books like this that make Christian women look like idiots and imbeciles to the world instead of vital, dynamic, and strong followers of Christ. There's no way I would ever show it to any of my friends or family because it's an embarrassment. I gave it one star because the information and illustrations are good for a laugh.

This review is from: Christian Charm Course: Student's Book (Paperback)

I liked this little book inspite of the bad reviews some people gave it. It is just the basics--it is not meant to be a course in cosmetology. Also, it DOES approach things from a Christian viewpoint--there is emphasis on being a godly young woman in spirit as well as the physical--most every other page has some kind of emphasis on biblical behavior. There is nothing old fashioned about godliness, manners, and being well-groomed. You get out of it what you put in it.
