Synopsis
Homemade scones, pom-poms, daisy chains. . . The Great Big Glorious Book for Girls will take women back to a time when we made cup cakes with our grandmothers, when girls weren't obsessed with all things pink, when they didn't wear ‘hot to trot’ t-shirts aged eight and when a bit of sticky-backed plastic and a tissue box could be the answer to your dreams.
Perfect for mothers, grandmothers, aunts and godmothers (as well as daughters, granddaughters, nieces and goddaughters, of course), this is a book for all women who secretly, or not so secretly, loved playing French elastics, dream of making elderflower cordial and need reminding of how to play cat’s cradle.

Jenny Dean Assistant Editor, talks about The Great Big Glorious Book for Girls
All girls know that there’s more to them than just make-up and gossiping – although they’re not averse to a little bit of both. Boys aren’t the only ones to like a little danger, a little adventure in the Great Outdoors and a lot of fun, wherever they can find it. And that’s what makes The Great Big Glorious Book for Girls just so glorious.
It’s big enough to cover every element of girlhood, from the luxurious pampering of a homemade spa to the quiet delight of reading the stars on a clear summer’s night. It’s great enough to satisfy the whims of diehard tomboys and devoted flower fairies. And it’s certainly glorious enough to provide inspiration, come rain or shine, to girls of all ages.
So if you’ve never been quite sure how to do the perfect French Plait, or if you are in need of a dastardly trick to keep your pesky brother in line, or you feel a friendship bracelet would be just the thing to show your best friend how much you love her, delve into The Great Big Glorious Book for Girls and discover all the other treats waiting inside.
