The book I read What Every 18- year- old needs to know about California Law By: L. Jean Wallace, was written to inform teenagers about laws that are relevant to this age groups' lifestyle. The author explains the laws in such a manner which teenagers can relate to and understand.The author also discusses details of the law. For example, this book is giving teenagers advice on things that they should not be doing. One of those things would be while driving. We should not drive while you are drunk. It would be a better idea to get a taxi.Another thing we should not do is racing. We shouldnt be racing on the road because we could have accidents.
This book gives people advice on employment. It is important to know these things because when you are ready for a job you can know these things mentioned in the book can happen to you.Other people should read this book because it will prepare for the things that can happen in your life. I believe that if people read this book before they are 18 they could avoid doing mistakes that will never be erased.
