Love Lessons is a Jacqueline Wilson novel aimed at teenagers. Fourteen-year-old Prue and her sister Grace have been educated at home by their controlling, super-strict father all their lives. Forced to wear Mum's odd hand-made garments and forbidden from reading teenage magazines, they know they're very different to 'normal' girls – but when Dad has a stroke and ends up in hospital, unable to move or speak, Prue suddenly discovers what it's like to have a little freedom.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Sent to a real school for the first time, Prue struggles to fit in. The only person she can talk to is her kindly, young – and handsome – art teacher, Rax. They quickly bond, and Prue feels more and more drawn to him. As her feelings grow stronger, she begins to realise that he might feel the same way about her. But nothing could ever happen between them - could it?

Abusive Parents: Prue's father is extremely controlling, demanding and emotionally abusive towards his children. Part of the reason Prue latches onto Mr. Raxberry is that he's the first adult she's ever met who treats her with kindness and respect. He's not much better towards his wife either, frequently berating her for being stupid in front of his daughters.

Anti-Hero: Prue could be considered this, as she's shown from the very start to have a rebellious, selfish streak, such as spending her father's money on things for herself and lying about attending her maths lessons, to treating her sister Grace very poorly and trying to seduce Mr. Raxberry in spite of knowing about his marriage and kids. Miss Wilmott calls Prue out towards the end for her arrogant personality.
