Parents looking for an abstinence-focused book that is liberal and secular may find this a comfortable choice to hand to their kids, but its overwhelming sincerity in the face of ironic teen culture and its textbook-like feel will likely not motivate them to actually read it. LGBT kids get particular support, if no practical sexual information. But Fonda’s warmth and love for the teen community is evident, even if her language might be seen by teen readers as a little condescending. As such, her sections on contraception and unplanned pregnancies are weak, and her information on STIs leans toward the scare tactic side of the spectrum. Fonda presents some sensible advice for teens choosing to have sex, but it’s clear that her focus is on preventing pregnancy by a soft-abstinence approach of delaying intercourse (“Don’t just give it away”), while exploring “outercourse” (foreplay), fantasy, and masturbation. This book, which takes on modern day issues that impact todays teens, including social media, cyber bullying and sexting, is an invaluable and timely tool for. This is the tragic real-life story of Jane Fonda, from her difficult childhood and health issues to her romantic losses and how she emerged stronger than ever. Fonda dealt with personal and political tragedies through every phase of her life, and continued to fight. The book’s strength is its factual information on puberty, with simple line drawings accompanying clearly explained information. In the 00s she returned to acting and activism with newfound energy. Jane also has a son, Troy Garrity, and daughter, Mary Williams, with Hayden. With Vadim, Jane welcomed a daughter, Vanessa Vadim, who had two children, Viva and Malcolm. Award-winning actress and fitness guru Fonda (My Life So Far) presents a guide to navigating puberty, which grew out of her work with the Georgia Campaign for Adolescent Pregnancy Prevention. Jane has been married three times: to director Roger Vadim, to activist and politician Tom Hayden, and to CNN founder Ted Turner.
