Hey, Girl!
By Tim Mikkelsen and Phyllis Wright-Herman 

A Shocking Look at Family
It's Funny Because It's Familiar

     Hey, Girl! is the kind of book you could buy because it is so much fun, hoot a bit over the pictures and wicked humor and then stow it away on a shelf to give to the next girlfriend who has a birthday. She will chortle over it, too, and never know it's second- hand unless you insist on reading it while you're cooking or taking a bath.

     Written by two old friends, Tim Mikkelsen and Phyllis Wright-Herman, it is a book that will make you want to write them a letter asking them for a job. "Can't I sit around a table and make fun of old photos with you? Huh? Huh?"

      There are only a few guidelines necessary for buying this book.

1. It should be purchase by someone with a salty sense of humor for someone with a similar outlook on life.
2. After you buy it, do not be tempted to send this pair any of your
family photos unless you want your cousins to disown you.
3. Avoid giving this to a great-aunt who still has big hair if you
want to hear from her estate lawyer when she dies.

     This little treasure is only $7.95. You can sign it like a card, give it like a card and it costs about the same as some cards. Just don't be surprised if you get it back for your own birthday. It's sure to get passed around!
