The Drug-Free Zone

Reach for this book when your school-aged child begins asking questions about the 'bad choices' older kids make or when they first hear the term illegal drugs in the hallways. It serves as a gentle but firm entry point for discussing substance abuse before they face high-pressure situations, providing a safe framework for a difficult conversation. In this 'Big Chapter Book' installment, Brother and Sister Bear take on a mystery at Bear Country School as they investigate how drugs are entering their community. The story focuses on the importance of making healthy choices and the power of standing up for what is right, even when it feels intimidating. It is specifically designed for the 7 to 11 age group, offering a more complex narrative than the younger picture books while maintaining the series' trademark moral clarity.
