Description

"Since when did a grown-up think a child is the boss? Stay away from that car, or in you'll be tossed " When Adam Walsh was kidnapped and murdered in 1981, fear gripped the nation. It was unfathomable to think that a child could be abducted in a shopping mall with his mother near. Some thirty years ago, Vickie Vernon Hawkins was a young mother whose third child had just been born. The realization that such a horrific abduction and subsequent murder could happen to anyone-anywhere-became an integral part of the way she raised her children. As she urged them to always remember, "Stranger danger ... we must beware " she began creating catchy rhymes that would help children as young as age two know exactly what to say and do when their safety is threatened by a stranger who asks for directions, offers candy, or touches a private place. The simple rhymes, accompanying illustrations, and practical advice in Stranger Danger: Children Beware blend to create a life-saving and lasting impression in the eyes and minds of children. "If a stranger should knock, keep the door locked "
