I'd Pick More Daisies / Holbrook, Betty / (PB/1976-1976/B+/USED)

*Condition Note: Owner marks. Mild cover and page wear normal for age.*

This book is presenting the best of those essays, "Especially for Women," represents that common interest. "If I had my life to live over . . . I'd start barefooted earlier in the spring and stay that way until later in the fall. . . . I'd pick more daisies!" Beginning with that philosophy, the author takes the reader gently through home problems, people relations, spiritual involvement, and perhaps a bit of cerebral gymnastics. This book retains its flavor even after the second and third reading.
