My Plastic Mommy

Posted by Tasha Saecker on April 17, 2008 12:57 PM

At first I thought this was a joke, then I only wished it was. My Beautiful Mommy is a book that tells the story of a little girl seeing her mommy get plastic surgery. Yes, sweetie, see mommy get bigger boobs, a tighter tummy and a smaller nose and then feel great about yourself. Almost like a double dog dare, isn't it?

Now that is scary!

It turns out this book is from a vanity press, and as such, would probably never really have seen the light of day if it weren't for the news story that spread the word like wildfire! Hopefully this is not one of those cases where media attention translates into sales... Most reactions I've seen have been pretty horrified, anyhow.
