Parents, grandparents, guardians, and teachers, here is an important book to share with young children。 While a little intense (depending on age of the child), it addresses a serious issue which needs frequent attention。The wording is simple, the water color illustrations by Sue Lynn Cotton are also simple but effective。This 24 page book is short, to the point with important instruction and information throughout the story。 Ending with a short quiz, it will ensure child understands what to do in Parents, grandparents, guardians, and teachers, here is an important book to share with young children。 While a little intense (depending on age of the child), it addresses a serious issue which needs frequent attention。The wording is simple, the water color illustrations by Sue Lynn Cotton are also simple but effective。This 24 page book is short, to the point with important instruction and information throughout the story。 Ending with a short quiz, it will ensure child understands what to do in emergency situations…Do you know the code?Two color pages are also included at the end。My review gives this book a Four Stars rating。*I was sent this book in exchange for an honest review, of which I have given。 。。。more

This little book hits right where it counts, bringing over a clear message。。。and an important one。 It's written just right for kids, explaining not only what a stranger is (yes, kids have a different opinion than us adults) but great tips on what to do when approached by one。 And all of this in a way kids will have no problem grasping and remembering。 I especially enjoyed the tips for parents because this is nothing kids should be learning to handle alone。。。because they can't。To round it off, th This little book hits right where it counts, bringing over a clear message。。。and an important one。 It's written just right for kids, explaining not only what a stranger is (yes, kids have a different opinion than us adults) but great tips on what to do when approached by one。 And all of this in a way kids will have no problem grasping and remembering。 I especially enjoyed the tips for parents because this is nothing kids should be learning to handle alone。。。because they can't。To round it off, there's a great question and answer section in the back, which helps to make sure the reader understood what they've read。 Such reinforcement isn't only necessary, but kids will enjoy it。Summed up, this is a great little book which reaches it's goal with flying colors。 After reading this, kids will be better prepared when a stranger approaches them and will know exactly how to handle it。I received a free copy in exchange for an honest review。 。。。more
