plastic fantastic

Happy Monday!

I have tons to report from the weekend, namely the skinny on my trip at Aqua's pre-launch party Friday. But I'm a little swamped, so I'll leave you with a quick post to ponder.

This book, a plastic surgery primer for kids, is making headlines. Conveniently titled "My Beautiful Mommy," it's a picture book written by a board-certified plastic surgeon. The plot(?) centers on a mom who's getting breast implants, a nose job and a tummy tuck.

And yes, surprisingly, she does come out looking even better than ever.

Sorry if I spoiled the ending.

Naturally, this beautiful mommy has her critics. Does the book outrage you? Is it wrong to believe that moms shouldn't get plastic surgery?
