Teen Fads: Fun, Foolish, or Fatal?

64 pp. | Enslow | July, 2003 | Library ISBN 0-7660-1665-X $$17.95
(4) YA Teen Issues series. Despite the book's subtitle, the authors aren't just interested in spinning cautionary tales. They take a sociological and occasionally humorous approach to their subject--although they do devote chapters to fallacies about fads and fads that have proven deadly. Keenly insightful about consumerism and loaded with specific examples, the book is illustrated with dull, grainy black-and-white photos of trendy teens. Reading list, websites. Bib., glos., ind.
