ALA Booklist (Tue Jan 03 00:00:00 CST 2023)

The Life Skills series (6 titles) tackles problems that face young people every day. The books in the series not only describe and identify the issues but they also offer suggestions and strategies to help readers get more control over their problems. Drinking and Drugs? begins with a long list of substances, from alcohol and caffeine to prescribed medicines and illegal drugs. The emphasis is on how these substances harm, but the final spreads offer ways to build self-esteem and fight peer pressure. All the books feature several "skills for life" boxes with specific suggestions. A helpful series for library shelves.
