“In my books my characters experience things as they are. My books allow youth an honest look at important issues affecting them. As adults we want to believe things like sex abuse or drug use are not happening anymore, or happening less and less, but that's not the case and we need to acknowledge that. We can't make life prettier for youth, but we can arm them.” WantNeedsBelieveLooksImportantBookCharacterUseSexCasesIssuesHonestYouthArmsDrugHappeningsAdultsAbuseAcknowledgeImportant IssuesDrug UseSex Abuse Author:Ellen Hopkins
