First, you'll read this
book because it's funny. Then you'll pick it up again because
it has such good ideas. Then you'll write your name on the inside
cover and carry it around with you. This is a book to become
dog-eared and written in. I Amazon Girls Handbook is a humorous self-help book and a guide
for enhancing life. While the focus is on lesbians, everyone
can benefit from its ideas and guidelines.

"If there were
more books like this, I'd work harder on my reading badge." --

Think Ladies' Garden
clubs. Think Hiking clubs. Think bird watchers. Think competent
women in sensible shoes. ...
Becoming an Amazon Girl
is a process. Novice Amazon Girls are known as Tomboys when they
learn the oath, the ideals, and the motto: "We're prepared
for a few things." When a Tomboy stomps up to Amazon Girl
she will begin to earn badges and to select a path (Warrior or
Mistress). Supremely dedicated Amazon Girls may aspire to the
ranks of Matriarch and even Goddess.
For the less organizationally
inclined, the Handbook supplies suggestions for activities to
build character (or not!), organize outings, improve home life,
think about spirituality, support community, learn new skills
or have fun, inexpensively.
