Blake's friend befriends a boy named Ryan. Ryan is drawn like an evil Disney character on every page. The story does not depict a common scenario involving pressure to use substances. Kids who feel pressured to use have to deal with resisting the influence of their friends, not some sinister looking new guy in town. Blake summons up the courage to Ryan that alcohol and pot aren't "my thing." The next page is a happily ever after scenario. In real life, a teen would be worried about the long-term implications of refusing to take part in what his friends are engaging in.Highly recommended:.Grades K-2What are Drugs?, Gretchen SuperK-5No Thanks, But I'd Love to Dance: Choosing to Live Smoke Free, Jackie Reimer"N" is for NO SMOKING, Eileen Cosby1-6Smoking Stinks, Kim Gosselin4-5I’ve Got This Friend Who: Advice for Teens and Their Friends on Alcohol, Drugs, Eating Disorders, Risky Behavior and More, Anna Radev6-8I’ve Got This Friend Who: Advice for Teens and Their Friends on Alcohol, Drugs, Eating Disorders, Risky Behavior and More, Anna Radev5-12Kids Say Don’t Smoke, Andrew Tobias
