Busted! series. Published fall 2006. Like the others in this readable series, these books begin with scare stories starring teens, then discuss the featured drug's history and dangers plus how to kick it (Marijuana tends to overdramatize, e.g., "involvement in any sort of drug-related activity will most likely end the same wayjail time"). Many photographs (some stiffly posed) appear throughout. Reading list, websites. Glos., ind., The Horn Book Guide Fall 2007
