Educational comic book sponsored and distributed by Solvent Abuse Foundation for Education (SAFE). Created and produced by Custom Comic Services. Artwork by Mike Roy. A message from The Solvent Abuse Foundation for Education (SAFE) is printed inside the front cover. "Boys and Girls, Every day you make choices. Some choices are easy -- like choosing what to wear or eat. Other choices are more difficult -- like choosing your friends or how to spend your time. At some point in your life, someone may try to get you to make a choice you know is wrong. Saying no to them can be tough. But you must be tough, if you want to stay free. Sometimes choices are easier to make when you know how they will affect your life. We hope the facts in this book will help you choose to use chemicals safelyt and correctly."
