CAN YOU HELP US REACH 1,000,000 TEENS?
The facts are bad. Drug use among teenagers is still on the rise. Depression, desperation and suicide among the young are symptoms of social disease that is not being healed. The authors below have written books that contain messages designed to help address the problem and they need your help to get help where help is needed.
Please take a minute or two and read the short descriptions of these works born of care. Visit the websites to get a feel for what the particular story line is messaging and pick one or two. Make a gift to teenagers, young people, even adults in your family or circle of friends this upcoming holiday season. These books are entertaining and engaging, so you'll get someone you care about to read a book ... that's one good thing. Someone who might be straying down a dangerous path also might just avert ruin ... that's an even better thing.

A MAINE CHRISTMAS CAROL - by Philip F. Harris is a holiday message to fight teen drug use. Set in contemporary Hallowell, Maine , this retelling of the Dickens classic focuses on the issues that affect today's teens including drug and alcohol abuse and teen suicide.
The reviews of the book have been great. The message is ideally suited for middle and high school aged teens as well as families with teens. Give our youth a gift that not only encourages reading, but that also contains a lesson that is written in today's language that addresses today's issues.

I ROMANCED THE STONE (Memoirs of a Recovering Hippie) - by Marvin D.
