Teenage Textbook or the Melting of the Ice-cream Girl - Thryft

Love, Lust and Lechery in Six Weeks

This book is a coming-of-age story that captures the tumultuous teenage years with wit and candor. The characters are relatable, flawed and endearing, making it easy for readers to identify with their struggles. What sets this book apart is its frank portrayal of adolescent sexuality, which is rarely talked about in YA literature. The book is perfect for anyone who's looking for a light-hearted and entertaining read that doesn't shy away from the uncomfortable realities of growing up.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.

Description

This book is for teenagers from 11 to 81.
It is a story about love, lust and lechery, all happening in the pressing space of six-and-a-half weeks (but as this is a family book, we shall not say where or how it’s pressing.)
Lee Mui Ee is the Ice Cream Girl. Tom D’Cruz, the Dashing Athletic Hero. Yeo Chung Kai is Mr Outstandingly Average while Sissy Song and Loo Kok Sean are the Princess of PJC and the Aspiring College Cassanova respectively.
Who will melt the Ice Cream Girl? Who or what will sort out the mess?
Will it be: The Teenage Textbook Dr E. Supramaniam MA (East Anglia), PhD (Calcutta) Toh Paik Choo, the editors of Female magazine and Mills & Boon? Who cares?
The answers to these and many other earth- (or should we say) milk-shaking problems are here as the Ice Cream Girl decides to make a clean breast of it.
“I’ve passed Teenhood.”
