Just Say Know! With drug education for children more important than ever, this nonfiction book draws on the experiences of the New York Times bestselling father and son team of David and Nic Sheff to provide all the information teens and ’tweens need to know about drugs, alcohol, and addiction.

From David Sheff, author of Beautiful Boy, and Nic Sheff, author of Tweak: Growing Up on Methamphetamines, comes the ultimate resource for learning about the realities of drugs and alcohol for middle grade readers.

This book tells it as it is, with testimonials from peers who have been there and families who have lived through the addiction of a loved one, along with the cold, hard facts about what drugs and alcohol do to our bodies. From how to navigate peer pressure to outlets for stress to the potential consequences for experimenting, Nic and David Sheff lay out the facts so that middle grade readers can educate themselves.

David Sheff is the author of the New York Times bestsellers Beautiful Boy and Clean: Overcoming Addiction and Ending America’s Greatest Tragedy. His writing has appeared in the New York Times, New York Times Magazine, Rolling Stone, Wired, and many other publications. His ongoing research and reporting on the science of addiction earned him a place on Time magazine’s list of the world’s most influential people. Sheff and his family live in the San Francisco Bay Area. Visit David at DavidSheff.com and on Twitter @david_sheff.

Reviews

“Mental health and its relationship with addiction is put at the forefront of the discussion, and Nic’s personal experiences lend credence to the sections on recovery and the effects of addiction…An informative overview of teen drug use.”

“Every parent should have this book on hand, and use it to open important dialogues with their kids. Arm them with knowledge, here in a kid-friendly format.”

His powerful story will hopefully inspire young people in similar circumstances to seek help.”

“[This book] never assigns blame to users, and it discusses such topics as marijuana legalization and opioid addiction without bias.”
