About... series

Illustrations by Craig Terlson

These full-colour publications, written and illustrated in a fold-out tabloid style, use a humorous approach to deliver a serious message to teens. Each publication focuses on a specific addiction and covers what it is, who is likely to become addicted, and the sensations and dangers associated with the addiction. It also provides information on substance use problems, legal penalties, health and financial concerns, how to reduce the risks, and more. Each publication is full of lots of interesting and informative facts. For example:

• the addictiveness of the drug or form of gambling
• who uses drugs and alcohol/who gambles
• what activities are considered gambling
• how alcohol and drugs are made
• dangers associated with drug use and drinking too much
• the laws and the legal penalties
• quick quizes
• how to get help
