    That’s great :) But, this would be her second book, as she co-authored a self-help/inspirational book back in ’97 0r ’98 called “Tyra’s Beauty (Inside & Out)”

    I bought it when I was a young teen who idolized her. The first time I’d ever seen her without her makeup (pic inside book), and both my mom and I nearly swooned from shock. Lol ^_^
