Read about the newest award to be added to the An Post Irish Book Awards
Let’s Talk is a ground-breaking new book for teenage boys that talks about the stuff they really want to talk about, learn and understand. From being single to being a boyfriend, being gay, being straight, sex, relationships, dating, sexting, drinking and break-ups, this book covers it all.
In a radical departure from previous generations’ attitudes towards talking about difficult subjects, Let’s Talk empowers teenagers to make informed decisions in their personal lives as they develop their understanding of their own sexuality.
Nobody gets everything right. There’ll still be mistakes and awkward moments, but there’s a far better chance of positive experiences if you’ve had the chance to talk, read and learn about these things in advance. So, let’s talk!
