They say little girls are made of sugar and spice and everything
nice. That innocent baby in the cot will one day become a sister, a
mother, a wife, a daughter-in-law. A girl's first-and sometimes
final-teacher is her mother. From first steps to first kiss,
marriage to motherhood, mothers are the coach and counsellor in
every girl's life. In this collection curated by veteran editor and
writer Theresa Tan, mothers write letters to their daughters who
may one day become mothers themselves. At times hilarious, mostly
brutally honest, these are no-holds-barred, one-sided conversations
between moms and their girls: values to impart, mistakes to learn
from, wisdom to pass on, confessions to make, gratitude to express.
These letters will make you laugh, weep and hug your child.
Includes notes on lipstick and taking care of your body; how to
survive marriage (and divorce); stupid things never to do; making
hard decisions; living life with passion; raising children and
caring for aging parents; carrying on family traditions; focusing
on what truly matters in life. Contributors include: Adlena
