Puberty sucks...at least it does for eleven year old Delia, whose body recently morphed into that of a playboy model. Now, she suffers under near constant torment of bullies and gossipers. "Delia-Boobelia" is a dark tale of how cruel children can be toward those who are different. *This book is NOT erotica, but it does discuss an extreme case of child abuse. This isn't detailed.
