Love, Sex and Other Such Things

Coming of age
Non-Fiction

All the answers to the questions you’ve never dared to ask about sex, love and other such things.

One day, Sabrina reads an announcement on her school’s noticeboard and can’t believe her eyes: the head teacher has just removed sex education classes from the timetable! Right now, when everyone at school seems crazy and no one knows anymore how they’ll wake up tomorrow, what emotions they feel, or what the border is between friendship and love.
And so, she and her friends, Frida, Enea and Kristos, come up with a brilliant idea. They secretly collect students’ embarrassing queries on matters of love, sex and other such things and, with the help of three professionals (a urologist, a gynaecologist and a psychologist), set up a clandestine magazine that aims to give everyone (the four of them included) the answers they need.

  • A fresh, new, engaging approach to all the topics, with the help of the fictional story, which brings readers closer to the dissemination themes.
  • Authoritative and updated contents thanks to the advice of three young and very competent experts.
  • Attractive graphics, with lots of illustrations and cartoons.
