The Snog Log

.Forget readathons and swimathons, Robbie and his mates have invented a new challenge of their own for the coming a snogathon! Robbie's #1 target is Mel Bradshaw, but she's going to be a tough nut to crack. Mel's got a target of her own - new poetry teacher Dave Carmichael. It proves to be a term in which the characters learn a lot about love and emotions and poetry and snogging - but especially about themselves. --- "A story remarkable for its insights into young teenage behaviour and an understanding of the female as well as the male sense of worth ... Conflicting feelings about school, learning, family relationships, love, real affection, loyalty, crushes and sexual exploitation are portrayed with a sympathetic humour while the outrageous Snogathon is full of funny incidents ... A very entertaining and positive novel - School Librarian, UK "It made me laugh and mid-way into the book I was totally hooked! You must read until the end as it has a strong conclusion." - Cool-reads "The best book I have read this year. It has a good beginning, a great middle and an even better end."; "A really enjoyable read, full of laughs and suspense"; "It was great to hear about life, school and girls from a boys' perspective ... I thought it was written by a teenager!" - all from Lancashire Awards Supplement "The dialogue was golden" - teen reviewer for the US print edition --- The Snog Log was originally published in print form in the UK by Orchard Books and in the US by Marshall Cavendish.
