Overview"According to a recent issue of ""Consumer Reports"": nine out of 10 regular smokers began using tobacco products before age 18; the average teen smoker begins at age 13; every day, 3,000 kids become addicted to tobacco products; and, almost 1,000 of them will die prematurely from tobacco-related disease. The books in this series offer ammunition against these statistics. Easy-to-understand text explains this complicated issue from 11 different perspectives, offering young readers the facts they need to make healthy decisions. Written with sensitivity and realism, with no 'scolding' or condescension, this series provides the latest research on the topic. Chapter openers provide 'words to know', ensuring that readers understand the material while expanding their vocabulary, and plenty of color photos and fun illustrations make the text attractive to teen readers. When it comes to tobacco and smoking, education can truly save lives."
