By now, we all know that smoking isn't cool. Tobacco is bad news, and that message is spreading like wildfire - finally. But there is work to be done. Some of our family and friends still smoke, movies give nicotine a lead role, celebrities light up, and tobacco companies are trying harder and harder to reach us because when their loyal customers die out, they will need cigarette-loving replacements pronto. In Let's Clear the Air: 10 Reasons Not to Start Smoking, kids just like you take a stand, share their views on smoking, and encourage others to stay tobacco-free. They have their own very specific and very personal motivations for why they will never smoke. From parents' health to the planet's health, appearance to money, and media images to peer pressure, you'll hear why they are turning their backs on cigarettes. For them, it's not about quitting smoking. It's about never starting, and about staying in control of their bodies and their lives. Join them in their effort to clear the air for good.Staffo, Deanna is the author of 'Let's Clear the Air 10 Reasons Not to Start Smoking', published 2007 under ISBN 9781897073667 and ISBN 1897073666.
