Magic Dreams.

All over the world, adolescents are at one time or another confronted with the strong temptation to try narcotics. This terrifying book is a compendium of "arguments against " presented in a form anyone can understand. It is written on a level unknown to most Americans and especially children. The book presents real confessions of real drug addicts, aged 17 to 42, horrifying stories, accompanied by comments of the author, medical specialists, teachers and representatives of the police. This book is full of common sense. It is not the usual and useless book of anti-drug propaganda full of threats of "irreversible brain damage," which to adolescents is a pure abstraction. This work introduces them to the nightmarish experiences of drug addicts told in their own words. Its brutally honest narratives will dispel any aura of glamour that may have surrounded narcotics in the minds of some adolescents and scare them so badly that they will never give in to the impulse to try them-at least that's what many experts and media reviewers say. The main reason so many of our children do succumb to the initial temptation to use drugs is that they don't know the real truth, the real consequences of doing so. After reading this book they will know it. Here is what one Russian blogger with a specific name Angry Vampire writes about this book:

- Such first person accounts always get you where you live. They ought to print "Magic dreams" at government expense and give it to middle school classes to read, so that when these kids hear the words "meth," "heroin," or " shoot up" it would trigger an involuntary gag reflex. That would throw cold water on them once and for all. And another blogger writes:

- Not long ago I happened to get a hold of this book by Sergey Baimukhametov. I began reading it just before going to bed. And...I just couldn't do it. I rushed to my mom and woke her up with my wild screaming: "Mom I'm scared " All of you, my peers, read it Let all of us be too scared even to think about drugs, to say nothing of touching them. It is no wonder that "Magic dreams" proved to be a bestseller in Russia, and, as of this writing, has been published in 18 editions.
