Synopsis

Just what does it mean to be a girl? Why is it not like being a boy? And why is that a good thing? Guardian" columnist Lucy Mangan lifts the lid on being female. From a daughter's place within the family ('It's a girl! What a pity!'), through the intricacies of what not to wear and who not to talk to,Brownies and breasts, the stuff you want to remember and the stuff you'd rather forget, this brilliantly funny guide is a full and frank account of how it really is different for girls. Packed with bittersweet memories and the sharpest observations from one of the brightest lights in journalism, this is the genius offspring of the bestsellingHow to Walk in High Heels" and I Don't Know Know How She Does It".Part nostalgia, part journalism, fully fabulous: it's a glorious romp through all things female.
