Sample Book Insights:
#1 The author, a well-educated, contented girl who grew up in a Leave It to Beaver household, eventually embraced a maverick persona. She explained that she had all the information she needed to ride through life like an armored blonde goddess when she saw a 1949 film titled The Beautiful Blonde from Bashful Bend.
#2 I was influenced by the do-it-yourself heroines I had watched as a child. They took it all on without viewing it as something that needed a great deal of support to handle. In the early sixties, when women started telling me I should join the Cause, I thought that was about as interesting as joining the Daughters of the American Revolution.
#3 I thought that women who chose to live life at home chose to do so because they were fulfilling a dream, not because they were bowing to societal pressure. I couldnât imagine anyone doing something they didnât want to do.
#4 I loved to dress up as different characters from the childrenâs books I loved. My mother, who was a modern woman, couldnât participate in this hobby.
