Alex asked this question about Heartstopper: Volume Five (Heartstopper, #5):

Hey all! I'm an English teacher in a state with VERY strict rules on book content in schools. Those rules are that a book can't depict sex (though it can allude to it), and it can't show genitalia. I know that the first book in this series is all clear, but if anyone can advise on the rest of the books in this series, I'd appreciate. :) What kind of content are we looking at?

sundew Sex is definitely a big focus in this volume, but it's really only talked about, and not shown. It shows Nick and Charlie kissing and taking shirts of…moreSex is definitely a big focus in this volume, but it's really only talked about, and not shown. It shows Nick and Charlie kissing and taking shirts off. They are shown shirtless. The previous volumes contain no sex, just kissing so they should be fine. (less)
