Research shows that drug abuse prevention efforts in the preteen years lead directly to lower rates of drug use during the teen years. But middle-school readers are not easily swayed by oversimplified "just say no" messages. This new series delivers its message in a dramatic and effective way: by telling -- and showing -- readers the harsh realities of the physical effects of drugs, alcohol, and tobacco. Using graphic medical photos and clear, vivid text, this unique series is a hard-hitting and fascinating weapon in the war against teen drug abuse.Teens who read about -- and see -- the foul things that alcohol does to their liver (not to mention the rest of their body) are likely to think a lot longer before deciding to experiment with alcohol.
