Product Description
From the Author
A Message To Anyone Who Might Buy My Book.
I wrote this book because I have been, and continue to be, a guy.
I wrote this book because I have been, and continue to be, a guy.
You might not agree with what I say in the book, you might not like it, but I believe in it and a lot of it comes from personal expereince - so, as far as I'm concerned, it's true.
It's about girls and about spots and feeling weird and not fitting in. I'm not a medical guy, I'm a writer, so the advice is informed but personal. The kind of advice that I'd give my kids if I ever have any.
I hope you might pick up a copy and maybe laugh at some of the stuff inside. My book like growing up and, as far as I can tell, like life, isn't that serious. And I think that's important. If you are a guy and if you read my book I hope that the one message that I could pass one - one guy to another - is that, no matter how you feel IT'S NEVER THAT BAD and you will look back and laugh and maybe, one day, write a book of your own.
Enjoy it. I did.

If I had to choose only one book to give to/read with my sons, this could well be it. Not only does it cover all the REALLY cringy topics in great detail, it also explains everything clearly, in accessible language for this age group, and with HUMOUR. Catch the page on how to shave - very down-to-earth, extremely useful, and very funny. A huge portion of the book is dedicated to "Surviving Love and Sex" - judging by the amount of time pubescent boys spend fantasising on such topics, this chunk is very necessary. It also gives sensible advice on the whole deal. What makes the book so utterly readable from beginning to end? - the cool cartoon character that takes us through, cracking little asides the whole way; the changeable type face which is fun to read, grabs your attention (especially in the Very Important bits) and keeps the pages interesting; and last but not least, the information and the way it has been handled - never preachy, never dull, just practical. Brilliant. Teenage girls should be given a copy of this too.

Format:Paperback
A humourous book for teenage boys discussing all aspects of growing up. From getting dumped, asking a girl out to having sex ('if you dont wear a condom you will end up looking after a rug rat when youre studying for GCSEs'!!!!). Also talks about the issues of drugs, STDs and loads more.
The book does not preach---just tells you as it is with all the pros and cons and consequences
I learnt a few things too!!!
My 14 year old actually read it---thats recommendation in itself.
5 stars from us!

This was the best book ever and it helped me through tough teenage times. Now my mates know I have this book they either want advice on girls or want to lend the book. So realy all I am saying is BUY THIS BOOK, YOU WILL NOT REGRET THIS.

Great guide
Bought this for my 13yr old son. He hasn't said much, but has read it from cover to cover, so can only assume he was enlightened! From the bits I read, it is truthful and fun.
