Description

IN THE MIRROR
When I am skinny…

I’ll laugh all the time
I’ll be very cool
I’ll be in the magazines
And look good at the pool

The sun will be shining
I’ll drive a fast car
I’ll meet Justin Timberlake
I’ll be a star.

 

Based on the personal experience of the actor Sancia Robinson, What is the Matter with Mary Jane? bravely examines the nightmare of Anorexia Nervosa and Bulimia, from the perspective of one who has made it through to the sanity of self-acceptance. Brimming with courage, humour and poignancy, this edition features a revised playtext, and updated teachers’ notes for deeper learning and discussion.
