Gr 7 Up–This long-running, well-researched series continues to tackle timely and relevant subjects. While these are potentially sensational topics, the writing is, as always, matter-of-fact and the perspective balanced. Chapter headings are phrased in the form of questions (“What Are the Dangers of Synthetic Drug Use?”), and occasional photos, sidebars, and pull-out quotes add to the appeal. Robust choices for those seeking options for current events units or materials to spark debate.
