This Is Who I Am: Book Review

I wish I could remember how I discovered This is Who I Am: Our Beauty in All Shapes and Sizes. It is a book that I think every woman should read (and every man, for that matter). Not only is it a celebration of bodies in a sampling of their magnificent variations, but it is a book about the stories living within these bodies.

This is Who I Am is a coffee-table conversation-starter filled with beautiful photographs of women accompanied by stories of the women behind the images. The book is both thought-provoking and inspiring. The whole thing feels like a work of art, particularly for those interested in the development of one's body image.

I actually think This is Who I Am would make a wonderful gift for the right person in your life. I've had the book for well over a year and I still thumb through it now and then, in awe of the beauty and inspiration contained within. I look forward to sharing it with my daughter when she's older.
