by Melody a. Kramer (Author), Cenki Studios (Illustrator), Lora Watts (Designed by)

Green Leaves and Brownies: A Paradoxical Explanation of Cannabis Laws comically reimagines a Dr. Seuss classic as a vehicle for understanding the complexities of federal and state cannabis law. It features Uncle Sam as the recalcitrant protagonist who refuses to allow the use of marijuana anywhere or in any form. Meanwhile, Joe Schmoe and his California bureaucrat buddy try to find some way to convince Uncle Sam to allow cannabis consumption in some form or another, though Joe tries to push the limits too much even for California. This book lays out the curious conflict between federal law's complete ban on cannabis versus state law regulated use structure.

This pitch-perfect parody provides an accessible educational starting point for understanding cannabis law, complete with an epilogue explaining the facts and literary license intertwined in the book. It is a story that will delight and educate readers whether they use cannabis or not.
