Some of the best books about dating for kids of all ages
If your tween or teen has hit that age where they are starting to think about dating, you will find this list of teenage dating books very handy!
These books will help prepare both you (the parent) and your dating child. If you’re unsure of how to approach dating and what type of conversations you should have, then these teenage dating books will help.
It is better to be prepared and start thinking about dating before it starts happening. This way, you can start to have positive conversations with your teen and make sure that they are ready. And with a clear understanding of sexual consent being even more important for teens today than ever before (remember the Brock Turner case in the United States in 2016? We need to have these vital conversations to ensure our teens stay safe.
So, if you don’t want to spend ‘date night’ worrying about your child, these teenage dating books will help.
Many of the sex education books for teens and teenagers will also include dating in them. I haven’t included them in this list, though, mainly because I’m assuming that if you’re searching on Google for teenage dating books, then you want a book that will actually help. And the books in this list will do that!
If you’re looking for a book on a different topic, look at my main list of sex education books for children. It includes over 40+ topics!
You’ll also find more information about sex education on my Sex Education 101 page.
Children’s books about dating
You’ll find an age-specific list of books about dating. All of the books on this topic are currently showing.
All of the ages are visible, regardless of whether they’re relevant (or not). If no books appear for your chosen age, then it means there aren’t any relevant books.
To find relevant books for your child’s age, click on their age, and the appropriate books will appear.
NOTE: Before passing any book to your child or reading it with them, you should read it yourself first. I might think it is a great book for a certain age child or that the information is valuable, but you may disagree. Try to choose books that reflect your values and the messages you want your child to receive.
I don’t have any books on this topic for this age yet. Try another topic above.

Happy reading!
