I guess books really are easy targets, and by focusing on them some people can avoid looking at larger social issues.Ana S.https://www.blogger.com/profile/16092495983972185943noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2381533012764037154.post-86909447635636546862009-07-28T20:37:05.545+01:002009-07-28T20:37:05.545+01:00Great post!

I agree that sex shouldn't be a taboo; it's the most natural thing in the world. I also agree with not taking away a book someone needs.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2381533012764037154.post-20477667628646374422009-07-28T13:30:23.951+01:002009-07-28T13:30:23.951+01:00I agree with you Katie.

I think that books help teenagers to deal with their problems whether it be an eating disorder, a death of a loved one or simply a fight with a friend. They show people that they are not alone and teenagers can see how other people dealt with the stressful situations in their lives and can learn from character's experiences. <br /><br />I think that sex is something natural and special and that maybe it shouldn't be broadcast to younger children but YA books are aimed at just that - Young Adults! <br /><br />sorry for the long comment but does anyone else agree?Kittynoreply@blogger.com
