I think you should get this book if your parents say its ok. It doesn't matter if its for boys too ir not. But before you get it ask your parents first. Welcome!

Girls under 16 do not read. Totally not for young girls. P.S I am 10. And I do not want a girl under 16 reading this. IT IS SO NOT RIGHT FOR AN AUTHOR TO HAVE A BOOK WITH A CHARECTER UNDER 16 LOOKING AT A BOY LIKE SHE WANTS TO MAKE OUT WITH HIM. P.S. I am really 10!!!!!!!

A lot of this should be an adult topic. This just encourages stuff that should be left for adults and I'm sure an awful lot of adults would not want their kids reading this! I wouldn't give this any stars if I could!

Theres always a certain time where your parents need to tell you about sex. Its part of growing up for children. 10 years of age probably. Someone told you once right? Now this book is telling you and helping parents explain

I agree, its disgusting. But think about it; how did you come to the earth? Its all part of life to have it to make children. However, this is not something that a young child from 7-12 years old should be reading. In 13, and of course i know about it. Its on TV, in songs, and in books. And in middle school, i hear stuff all the time that is inappropriate. But sooner or later kids should learn. But asking parents is akward and strange. Dont people have health class though? As you get older, questions are answered. But no kids should read about it if they are young and think it is ok to do it. you should be married and at least 25 before you have it. Thats just my opinion. ~Booklover13 (but not a lover of this book!)
