(4) YA Drugs, the Straight Facts series. The books in this cautionary series succeed because they are lucid, well organized, and filled with color photos, charts, graphs, diagrams, lists (e.g., "Famous Dead Smokers"), and other visuals that both break up the text and reinforce the just-say-no message. The authors only lose traction with the melodramatically written anecdotes designed to scare readers straight. Addresses, reading list, websites. Bib., ind. [Review covers these Drugs, the Straight Facts titles: Heroin, Hallucinogens, Cocaine, and Nicotine.]
