> Books offering advice to parents about teens are less likely to contain injury prevention messages than those concerning smaller children, according to a University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill study. Prevention relating to automobile accidents and burns are the most commonly addressed injury topics in books focusing on younger children, while gun safety was the leading topic in publications about adolescents, although motor vehicle crashes are the leading cause of injury to that age group.
