"If we don't teach sex ed, porn will and Jess Melendez did the heartwork to teach the sex ed we all deserved in this dynamic book. It will engage young readers to be critical, introspective, and intentional in their relationships with others and their own body. It's the resource parents, educators, and clinicians have been waiting for and the accessible tool young people need to navigate our sex-illiterate society."
