Many teenagers never realize the risks they are taking when they abuse common inhalants such as glues, cleaning and lighter fluids, or pressurized whipped cream. Sherry clearly explains common inhalants, the solvents contained within each one, and the effects on the brain and the central nervous system from "sniffing" or "huffing" these products. Sudden sniffing death is described in detail, as is permanent brain injury associated with inhalant abuse. Simple, straightforward language outlines stories of young people who have abused inhalants and the disastrous results they have obtained.
These nine titles discuss both individual drugs and drugs in society to present teens with solid information so that they can make smart choices.
