'Bruce Beresford's Puberty Blues is a funny and poignant film that still speaks to the teenage audience as it honestly and sensitively deals with some of the central trials and temptations of growing up. The author recounts her experiences as the star of the film and what it was like filming the book by Kathy Lette and Gabrielle Carey.' (Source: Libraries Australia).

'Schofield recalls how she won the role of Debbie and what it was like on the set. She looks at the parallels between the film, the book and her own surfside teenage years, and at the extraordinary responses to the film, both on its release and since.' - Back cover
