This book would make an excellent contribution to any woman's collection! Life is a series of ups and downs and this book captures the essence of daily survival. Definitely a must have for every woman!

Okay, I admit it: I love Jodi Hill's work. She uses bold primary colors in her powerful illustrations. She uses strong, simple language in her message of joy and hope.

In 2004, Hill launched her writer/author life with Hope-So Too about a young adopted Asian child who adopts a puppy. It's a message of hope.

In Believe and I Am Amazed, she talks to women young and old--with words that make you want to buy copies for sisters, daughters and friends.

In this newest book, Slap on a Little Lipstick...You'll be Fine celebrates the beauty of all women. All of our mothers had such (sometimes inane) statements--some we grabbed onto, others we ignored and yet others we scoffed at. Using the lipstick print we've all left on napkins--and other places, Hill's illustrations are vivid and fun, as are her words.

Slap on is about women facing each day--making it happen ... surviving ... putting up with ... overcoming challenges ... laughter or crying ... sharing our inner beauty--all the while wearing Apricot Beige #7 or Antique Rose.

Like cosmetic companies that discontinued MY favorite color when it has become my daily dab on, life gives us changes, or stops something abruptly that we have become used to.

Jodi Hills says, "When you are a daughter, mother, sister or girlfriend--you are proof positive that daily surviving can be a beautiful thing."

This is a great gift book. I gave it to my friend for Christmas. She bought three more copies for some friends of hers.

This inspirational and playful gift book accredits women with stirring poetry and great art!

I'm sorry, I don't get it. This book sucked! The best thing about it was it's title. Oh, I read it in less than 2 minutes.
