Sexy Girls: How Hot Is Too Hot?: A sexy title for a book about teen girls and the messages they send out to the male population through clothing, make-up, and behavior. Veteran author Hayley DiMarco serves up some candid and practical advice to help young women understand and evaluate the image they are projecting.
This isn’t a book you would just hand off to a girl struggling with self-image issues. In the girl world, there is a lot of defensiveness concerning this topic. Add in a caring adult or a girls’ small group and this could be a springboard for great discussion.
