We can’t stop the aging process, but with the help of How Not to Become a Little Old Lady, we can at least put up a fight. Author Mary McHugh offers more than 100 pointers of things to avoid in order to stave off little old ladyhood–making it a fitting gift for birthdays, Mother’s Day, holidays, and other special occasions.

Illustrated with the humorous line art of Adrienne Hartman, this little book reminds us not to boil our vegetables until they’re gray, hoard expired coupons, carry a tissue up our sleeve, or discuss our latest ailments over lunch.
