Keeping your child safe from predators.

Give children “the scoop” on personal safety with this powerfully important story written to empower children with the skills and confidence needed to make right choices in their daily social interactions.

SCOOP is an acronym to help children remember five personal safety strategies to keep them safe in everyday situations:

  • be Smart
  • use your Call list
  • zerO talking to strangers
  • keep strangers Out of your personal space, and
  • always Pair up.

This book is an excellent tool to help parents, teachers, counselors, and caregivers equip children with safety skills to prevent child abduction. Written in a friendly, non-threatening manner, SCOOP takes a refreshingly empathetic approach to the topic of personal safety from a child’s point of view.
