Synopsis
Homemade scones, pom-poms, daisy chains. . . The Great Big Glorious Book for Girls will take women back to a time when we made cup cakes with our grandmothers, when girls weren't obsessed with all things pink, when they didn't wear ‘hot to trot’ t-shirts aged eight and when a bit of sticky-backed plastic and a tissue box could be the answer to your dreams!

Perfect for mothers, grandmothers, aunts and godmothers (as well as daughters, granddaughters, nieces and goddaughters, of course), this is a book for all women who secretly, or not so secretly, loved playing French elastics, dream of making elderflower cordial and need reminding of how to play cat’s cradle.

Probably not to everyones taste but it looks fun!

You are right..it is not to my liking! I am a guy and had brothers and we rode bikes and had waterballoon and crabapple wars(oh ok..I did have a doll at one time..and also played 'barbies' with my little girlfriend..though I did the manly thing and tore them up or melted them at least) and threw little buckets of pee at the nasty stuck up neighbors!! Bad enough that I myself recommended that 1899 Women's libber 'The Awakening' book myself!
