This is a surprisingly honest over-view of the modeling industry where it neither condemns modeling as a dangerous occupation degrading to women, nor does it glorify modeling while covering some of the harsher sides of the industry.  I especially liked the emphasis throughout on safety and the importance of listening to oneself in order to stay safe.  Those desperately chasing down their dream can often tend to overlook that voice inside warning them that something just isn't right.  This author underscores the vital necessity of trusting yourself and being confident that when something doesn't feel right to you, then it isn't right.  It was also refreshing for the author to reiterate several times that it isn't all about the money and highly suggested doing photo shoots in the beginning that paid little in actually money, but were with trusted names in the modeling industry in order to build a stronger portfolio.  This is a down-to-earth "how to" that is a great choice to hand to any young girl who is beginning to show interest in becoming a model some day.
