Series Review: FAQ Set 5"This series takes a whole-body approach to teens' lives, discussing the issues that affect both their physical and emotional well-being. Accessible narratives present bulleted information, list myths and facts, discuss risky behaviors, and dispense wellness advice. The books adeptly reach out to both genders, especially Athletes and Eating Disorders and Exercise Addiction, which address concerns about professional athletes as role models and students' desires to please coaches. Crisp, captioned color photos (eyepopping in Body Piercing and Tattooing) are found throughout; Human Papillomavirus and Migraines and Headaches also include drawings that illustrate anatomy and physiology."
