Not just a book about sex, but a look at girl culture by teenagers. No stuffy school textbook. No nosy adults. Just a diverse group of teen girls from a community youth project who had questions about sexuality. To find answers, they collected stories, poetry and artwork from other youth. They also interviewed frontline health experts to get solid facts about the personalities and pressures that young women have to deal with. Topics include: relationships, periods, sex, birth control, pregnancy, sexually transmitted infections/AIDS, and sexual assault. All the content has been vetted by doctors, and the book is endorsed by health professionals--so girls know they're getting good info. There's also a section at the back with places to contact to find out more. It's all stuff that youth need to know, and it's all decked out in a compact, easy-to-browse zine style.--From publisher description.
