In the News: Set 3

We're living in an age of complicated social issues and conditions. Our teens are expected to have knowledge of these issues, even when sources are slow to distribute accessible information and to quell misinformation. This remarkable series distills the need-to-know facts about pressing issues such as terrorism, food supply and safety, hate crimes, and human trafficking. Each author presents a straightforward account of the history, status, and possible future impact of the condition or issue. Striking but not overly sensational photographs support the large-font text and will engage reluctant readers.
