An A-Z of teen handbook covering life skills, the emotional roller-coaster and the basic stuff you really need to know that never gets a mention at school. Like, A is for acne, after-parties, alcohol, angst, among other things, and W is for wannabes, wardrobe, weight and waxing. Naturally, Z is for zits and zonked out.
Each topical word has a dictionary definition and the author's quirky definition (the real stuff) and there's an acrostic for each topic word:
- Head
- Ache
- If
- Ruined
Hair = locks, mane, fur, threads (That stuff that grows out of your head like a lawn and it needs mowing and watering every now and then.)
'Oh nooo, it's the end of the world! You went to the hairdressers yesterday and because she was too busy looking at herself in the mirror she cut an extra ten inches off the hair it's taken you ten years to grow! And what about the colour?! You look like an all-day sucker, despite the fact you even took a clipping from 'Dolly' mag and said "That colour!" (and can you throw in that body and that guy hanging off her?).'
