Some of these women you will recognize, such as artist Grandma Moses or entertainer Rita Moreno. Others will surprise you as they've all done extraordinary things past the date when women are considered 'young & fresh.' The book is well written and highly entertaining, but it comes with a message: In a society where ageism is rampant, we need to rethink how we view more mature women because they are capable of greatness. ―Advice Sisters</p><br>
