Judging More Than What's In Front.

It's a hassle to find the perfect dress, the pefrect shoes, the perfect swimsuit. It's even tougher to have the perfect body or the perfect hair, but you'd be amazed. As a little girl my mom was a really big fan of putting me in pageants, but you know as a 6 or 7 year-old you really don't have a say in anything. As I grew older, I grew fond of being on that stage watching cameras flash and having people who I don't even know to look me up and down. The part I hated the most, was being judged. In the book, Abosultely Maybe by Lisa Yee, Maybelline lives in this world. Her mother, Chessy, runs and operates a Charm School. Her mother is blonde, beautiful, skinny, and very perky; which sounds just like a pageant queen, doesn't it? Well that's is exactly what she is, you would think her daughter would be rolling in the crowns. But Maybelline turned out to be the complete opposite. She wears clothes that are too big, she has pink hair, and wears dark lipstick. She is unique, and loves the way she is. But being judged was a huge part in her life which caused Maybelline to figure out who she really was. Read this book, your life may be changed.
