Bobby and Mandee Children’s Books

It can be stressful for parents to try to keep our kids safe while allowing them the freedom to experience the wonderful things that life has to offer. Of course, we don’t want them to be paralyzed with fear. It’s important to give them the tools to deal with things like bullying and dangerous strangers. Kids need to know who they can trust to help them when life gets hard.

These two children’s safety books are simplified for young children. They are best when read with a parent, so that you can talk about the books together. Kids should be informed and ready to protect themselves, but they don’t need to live in fear.

Pub. date 10/1/01

Description: “Bullies, Beware! This little book is going to have a big impact! In this moral-driven story, Mandee tells big brother Bobby how a bully took all her money. Bobby stresses that she needs adult help, and explains what to do if it happens again. Don’t argue; just walk or run away; tell a trusted adult; or call 911. If the adult doesn’t believe you, tell another adult until you find someone who understands. A quiz at the back of the book helps the reader remember what to do, and there’s a place to write the phone numbers of “safe grown-ups” to call.”

Read it to your child and role-play different scenarios. Create a password only you and your child know, label backpacks on the inside (so strangers won’t know your name).
