Love, sex and other things of the sort are the topics that everyone starts wondering about when they hit puberty. In this book, you can find the answers and many curiosities. They are collected and presented in a fictional story whose protagonists are four teenagers who, in order to talk about these topics, create a clandestine magazine full of illustrated images. It is from them, but always with the advice of three professionals from different fields (a urologist, a gynaecologist and a psychologist), that all the information readers would never have the courage to ask their parents and teachers comes. How do you manage your first crush? Why does the body change, and how should you take care of it? What is the LGBTQ+ movement? Why is it important to know how to say no? This and much more is the content of their magazine and of this book, which the two authors have written partly as a novel and partly as an indispensable manual for surviving that hurricane of emotions and questions that sooner or later overwhelms everyone.

 

• A fresh, new, engaging approach to all the topics, with the help of the fictional story and three experts, which brings readers closer to the dissemination themes.• Attractive graphics, with lots of illustrations and cartoons.
