How to be a teenager

This is a fun handbook on how to survive life as a young adult. It is about central issues such as falling in love, how to become a sweetheart, how to be a boyfriend or girlfriend (it is not only teens who could learn something here), bodies, and hormones, to name a few.

There is a lot of sensible and cunning advice, among other things: how good hygiene, changes in clothes and brushing your teeth can improve the chance of getting a sweetheart...

The author takes the topic and teenagers seriously, he manages to convey the information in a decent way, showing seriousness, but not pointing his finger.

The book is illustrated by Bjørn Brochman.
