Four youngsters have teamed up to write a book on their personal experiences and what young people in general go through. Refilwe Kerekang, Phodiso Mpotokwane, Lesego Otlhabanye and Lazarus Takawira, who are in their 20s, penned the book titled Young Conversations and released it last week.

The 165-page book consists of  writing by the different authors and were combined to make Young Conversations talk of their persona.
