Description: Valerie Harper, a.k.a. Rhoda Morgenstern, is sick of those phony "fabulous at 50" books written by women whose skin is free of laugh lines and who wouldn't know a cellulite pocket if it bit them on the side. So she's decided to tell it like it is in Today I Am a Ma'am. With her trademark straight-from-the-hip, call-'em-like-she-sees-'em style, she helps women figure out, with humor and grace, what it means to be middle-aged. Included are essays on bodies, from alligator skin to bubble-wrap thighs; secrets -- from mastering the art of indifference to finding new appreciation for Lady Macbeth; and pleasures, from the joy of crankiness to the thrill of saying "Let us eat cake!" Today I Am a Ma'am is a witty, irreverent call-to-arms from America's most reliable girlfriend, a Chicken Soup for the funny-bone, a book that women can pick up whenever they need a laugh -- or a reminder that midriff drift is not the end of the world.
