As a recovered drug addict and alcoholic I can tell you what not to do. Just say no, is ridiculous – addiction a slow disease and people will try alcohol or drugs and then get hooked over a period of time. Silly phrases will just encourage people to laugh and ignore your efforts.
I would focus on something more frightening like a picture of a crack user that you could get from a drug awareness site with information. No one likes being told what to do from do-gooders who haven’t been there. I say that only as someone who has been in that frame of mind. I applaud your efforts to stay away from substances that can be abused.
Research the sites that promote drug awareness.

weed is the seed of a bad deed ?
or you’re not in ecstasy with ecstasy ?
If you do coke you’re broke – because its so expensive
If you do hash, your going to crash
Meth equals Death
Don’t do hash for cash

Basically, you know most people start on weed before going onto class A drugs? So it’s saying that weed is the start of a “bad deed”. Once you’ve done it, your addicted for a big part of your life.

Don’t make a really plain one, make it colourful and 3D so cut out bits of thick card and different textures to add interest. You could draw a druggie on thick card and cut him out then point out all the disgusting stuff – like bad breath or something. Do his whole body so he’s wearing clothes and then like when you turn a page in the book have his lungs underneath – and make them all black…

I am sorry if I’m not making any sense to you, I can imagine it but I’m not very good at explaining stuff. hope this helps 🙂
