Forgive my prejudice

Remember how I said the author of the Unicorns Are Real book was deterring me from reading it? I knew you couldn't understand how serious this was until you saw the picture. I searched online and couldn't find it, so here's my attempt at photographing the back of a glossy book:



I'm not trying to be mean, but do you see what I'm talking about? It doesn't matter how good the material inside proves to be. I just can't get past this picture. It's wrong of me, I know. I shouldn't be so shallow.

How could I, of all people, choose to disregard potentially helpful advice because of an old photograph? Consider my past. I mean, who would have thought that the subject of this photo....




.....would evolve into the subject of this photo.....


I'm going to talk to myself now:
Oh, honey. What if people were to judge you by old photos? Would they think "Wow, she must have loads of insight into homeschooling and child rearing. I bet she's full of theologically sound advice." Or would they think "Wow, she looks like an anemic Weird Al." Hmmmm? Now get over your apparel-impaired self and stop judging books by their covers.
