Too tall. Too short. Too fat. Too thin. The message is everywhere-we need to pluck, wax, shrink, and hide ourselves, to not take up space, emotionally or literally; women are never "just right." Well, Ariella Elovic, feminist and illustrator extraordinaire, has had enough. In her full- color graphic memoir Cheeky, she takes an inspiring and exuberant head-to-toe look at her own body self- consciousness, and body part by body part, finds her way back to herself. How does Ariella learn not to see herself as a never-finished DIY project, but to accept and even love the physical attributes society taught her to hide? How does a mirror go from a "black hole of critique" to a "who's that girl" moment? Essential to her journey is her posse of girlfriends, her "yentas." Together, they discover that sharing "imperfections" and some of the gross and "unsightly" things our bodies produce can be a source of endless laughs and deep bonding. It helps to have a team with some outside perspectives to keep our inner bullies in check. Charming and hilarious, full of empathy and candor, and gorgeously illustrated, Cheeky aims to inspire women everywhere to embrace their bodies, flaws and all, and also their respective bodies' needs, desires, and inherent power"--|cProvided by publisher. 600 10 Elovic, Ariella. 650 0 Body image in women. 650 0 Feminine beauty (Aesthetics) 650 0 Self-acceptance in women. 650 0 Self-esteem in women. 650 7 Body image in women.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst00835361 650 7 Feminine beauty (Aesthetics)|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst00922652 650 7 Self-acceptance in women.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01111477 650 7 Self-esteem in women.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01111709 776 08 |iOnline version:|aElovic, Ariella.|tCheeky|dNew York : Bloomsbury Publishing, 2020.|z9781635574531|w(DLC) 2020012919 994 C0|bCKE
