No. I wouldn't buy it again

As I am a 71 year old woman growing littler, I thought it would be a motivator. It is somewhat amusing and I understand the sentiments. But it is also somewhat stereotypical and makes fun of older women to the point of belittling their experiences and their difficulties with the ageing process. A little more understanding would be good. I do hope that when I decide that I am a little old lady, the people around me will respect me for who I am, respect the history and experience that I bring to connect them to the past, help me with growing infirmities that I wish I didn't have (e.g. unwelcome bodily sounds) and enjoy my talents and enthusiasm. In the meantime, I will continue to work full time, have a hobby job too, walk faster, exercise more, have more energy and creative interests and fewer sick days than many of my workmates who are 30 or more years younger. However, I am very lucky that they accept me without ageism and value my expertise. Please see older women for who they are and what they bring to us - their grace and wisdom - and don't underestimate little old ladies! I will be grateful to become one as my mother and sister did not.
Not the size ordered

This is not a 5.5 x 3.65 book. It is a mini book st 3.65 x 3.65. The book itself is fine. But I bought it for my 89 year old mother and don't think she will be able to see it.
Would give zero stars if I could

NOT funny. I have a sarcastic sense of humor and thick skin, but this book made me cringe. Instead of humorously poking fun, this reads as a diatribe from someone who hates men in general and older men in particular.
Love it.

I Love this book because,. I am 83 years old. I have this book next to me and read it every day at breakfast. It makes me laugh. It is very good. It is not a big book so I can read a few pages to start the day off with a smile.
