Things I Want My Daughters to Know : A Small Book About the Big Issues in Life

I've read half of this book and I.LOVE.IT. I'm actually going to buy it and keep it to give to my daughter to read when she gets a little older.

Summary:
This small book illuminates a big idea, sharing simple, profound truths for joyful living. Alexandra Stoddard, a mother, grandmother, and noted lifestyle philosopher, helps readers cut to the heart of what's important in these brief, wise essays on essential principles worth living by. By turns profound ("Give anonymously"), controversial ("Unplug technology with no apologies"), affirming ("Tell yourself you have done nothing wrong"), and humorous ("Learn to style your own hair"), her succinct expressions offer new ways to nurture ourselves as we celebrate life's joys and grow through its challenges. Touching on the many textures of existence, accessible and timely, these are insights from a woman who has truly lived and learned -- and found happiness along the way.
