Series Review: FAQ Set 7
"These presentations provide sufficient background and then expand on each subject by referring to recent studies and developments in the field. A conversational tone keeps the books readable, and specific topics have information relevant to teens' lives. For example, "Military Family's" tips on moving and adjusting to another environment could be useful to any new student. Other features are a "Myths and Facts" section and a list of important questions to ask a specialist (doctor, trainer, etc.). The books are all illustrated throughout with captioned color photos."
