Exactly how steamy is this story?
PG
There isn't any sex or steaminess in A Long Way from Chicago, but the book still deals with themes of growing up—which sometimes means that the sticky truths of adolescence show up.
For example, Joey does notice that Mary Alice is starting to develop and will soon be a young woman, and she will have boyfriends. And the book does discuss some romance when it comes to Vandalia Eubanks and Junior Stubbs, who run off and elope. (Gasp!)
But it keeps things strictly PG…and there's no sex or inappropriate behavior whatsoever.
