The big idea my book is focusing on is beauty. I am really interested in how people perceive beauty in different ways. I also want to draw attention to society's view on beauty and how the media and our culture influence our ideas on what it means to be beautiful. I especially want to focus on the pressure women feel to look a certain way, and how we feel the need to alter ourselves to meet a certain standard.
On page one of the book, there are two sets of text. The text on the top is the dictionary's definition of beauty. On the bottom, I have written trivial questions about beauty: "Is beauty in the eye of the beholder? Is beauty only skin deep? Is beauty on the inside, or on the outside? Is there a such thing as natural beauty? What is beauty?" Page 2 of the book shows a collage of magazine images. These are all faces used in advertisements showing the viewers what is considered beautiful in today's society.
