Just Girlfriends: More Than Just Chit-Chat and Chocolate

The book we received (Just Girlfriends) was collated so the insides were backwards of the cover. A very difficult item to give as a gift. We loved the little book and my wife intended to give this to her girlfriends. if it can be fixed we will buy several copies

Loved this one and am sending a gift to one of my best pals! She will love it too! Thanks.....

"A day without a friend is like a pot without a single drop of honey left inside" (A.A. Milne) If you've never used your superior powers of deductive reasoning to determine that the effects of a fudge brownie à la mode can be counteracted by a diet drink at the same meal, then chances are that: 1. You're not of the feminine persuasion 2. You don't meet your girlfriends for lunch on a regular basis 3. You may not appreciate this picture book. This is a compact and delightful gift book expressly created for those special women who know you better than you know yourself. It contains more than forty adorable, full color photographs of animals, each with a "girlfriend-appropriate" phrase, quote or saying, ranging from PMS to Winnie the Pooh (see above). Recommended as a "just because" gift for the ladies of your posse who know when it's better to tell you the truth up front, and when to hedge their bets a little. Better yet, send it with a personal note thanking them for always watching your back.

"Girlfriends share two ageless elixirs: We laugh until we cry, and we cry until we laugh. Either one heals us from the inside out." ~Bonnie Louise Kuchler Bonnie Louise Kuchler has created a cozy read about friendship between women. This book would make a wonderful gift for the women in your life. The pictures of puppies, deer, kittens, baby elephants, seals, raccoons, ponies and bear cubs makes this book adorable. I loved all the quotes and the artistic way they are presented with the pictures. I can recommend this book to anyone who collects quotes or wants to give a gift to a girlfriend. ~The Rebecca Review

I admit I am not fond of 'cute' books. But this one is nice simply because the author has chosen some wonderful quotes to accompany her photos. Like Helen Keller who notes 'So long as you can sweeten another's pain, life is not in vain'. Or John Sage who notes 'Best friends can practically speak with their eyes just a knowing glance speaks a thousand words'. Would make a lovely gift for someone who needs reminding that they matter to you.
