What people are saying
'The Last Virgin in Year 10' is challenging, confronting, compelling. It's a contemporary story of adolescent confusion and choices. Its characters are convincing, cool and uncool. Cassandra, 15, wants to be with the in crowd. But she is uncomfortable with her conscience. There's a Cornish connection, of course, and a Celtic thread, city and country customs and values, clubs too – night club, surf club and a youth club in a café. There's kissing and what comes after.
Rosanne cleverly combines family and school, church and beach scenes, poetry, music lessons and concerts. This book will bring comfort and reassurance to many young readers and their grateful mentors. Christobel Mattingley
