Summary

Will wants to find a way to meet Mia - but how? And what would they talk about? What do girls think about? Mia thinks boys are immature. They only use one per cent of their brain. They only ever talk about cars and sport. And they only ever think about sex.

Fifteen Love Summary

Fifteen Love by Robert Corbet

Mia knows that boys think about sex every fifteen seconds. No wonder they find it so difficult to say hello. Will wishes he had a hidden microphone and a tape recorder so that he'd know what girls talk about. Mia thinks that Will could be deep and interesting, sitting alone on the grass staring at the sky. Maybe he's thinking about global warming or meteorology. But then again, he is wearing a tracksuit. Will is training to be a tennis star. Mia plays the viola in the school orchestra. Will doesn't even know the difference between a viola and a lawnmower! It looks like it's going to be a disaster. But when Will wins a tennis tournament and temporarily becomes the school hero, Mia's friends get interested and the game gets serious. A fresh and funny take on the game of love and all its faults (sorry!)
