Sex education is one of the leading forms of education in the US, due to the high exposure of teens to the bodily world as well as faster puberty rates. This novel by Judy Blume talks of sex in a manner acceptable by teens.
Katherine and Michael meet at a party. The attraction is instant and pretty soon they're going out and making out.
Katherine is a virgin, but as their relationship grows deeper and more intense they both want more. This is love, and love is forever - right?
But love isn't simple - and when Katherine's parents make them spend the summer apart, forever begins to feel like an awfully long time...
This is a book on first love, first sex and first heartbreak. But it's not porn or close to it. It's a teen lifebuoy to real life: teenage angst, friendship, teen pregnancy and other teen issues faced today. Written simple for better understanding, it's a book to read if you are on the loveboat in your teen years.
