Written in verse like a children's book, Lilabean is a story for today's stressed-out, over-worked woman. It follows one woman's jouney to the simplification and re-prioritization of her life. Each of the 12 chapters provides fresh perspective on feminine issues such as lack of direction, self-esteem, "people-pleasing," the distraction of clutter, the false appeal of shopping, the power of the consumer, and the need for intangible fulfillment. This is a perfect gift book.

This review is from: Lilabean: a Storybook About Simplicity for Grown-up Girls (Paperback)
We can all get caught up the hectic world of 'Life in the Fast Lane.' Bills, work, more bills, fast food, depression. We all seek some kind of joy, but sometimes we forget to slow down and take it all in. This book is a fairy tale for grown-ups that is written in such a clever comical way, it is a fantastic read! The rhymes are from the heart, and will reach woman of all ages who feel disheartened by life. It really helps you to slow down, take a deep breath, and 'wake up and smell the coffee.' :D
