Gina BellisarioBe Aware!: My Tips for Personal Safety (Cloverleaf Books ™ ― My Healthy Habits)

This book covers a few different situations to benssge in. Well help me to teach a great lesson for kindedgartners.

Not only it's only 24 pages (the number of pages I would expect in a book for 1-3 year old), but also there is hardly any text there. The story line is way too short and way too simple for a 5-8 years old. The concept of the book is good, older sister taking care of a younger brother, but having a good idea is not nearly enough to create a good book. I wanted to buy more 'Be aware!' books but I'm even returning this one.

Great book on safety for elementary kids! I read this to many classes K-1st grades and the kids enjoyed it.

Sophie, Agent S., is putting on her thinking spy caps as she was watching out for her “little brother, Will.” It’s her job to make sure that he is safe at all times. Agent S. “is on a safety mission” because they are on their way to school and has to make sure there’s no trouble. Will, Agent W., has to keep his eyes open and watch for trouble too. Sometimes “it’s not easy spotting danger” because things like cars can come out of nowhere. That’s why it’s good to watch out when crossing any kind of open area like “driveways, alleys, and streets.” Agent S. made sure they looked both ways before walking by that alley!Oh, look at that man in the blue car. “Are you lost?” he asked. Well, they didn’t know him so the best thing to do was keep on walking. It was up and onto Miss Olive’s bus, but there were still safety things for Agents S. and W. to be aware of. Those seat belts had to be fastened and they had to use their inside voices on the bus. When they arrived at school and got off the bus, they had to “move out of the Danger Zone.” Miss Olive just might not see them if they were “anywhere within 10 feet (3 meters) of the bus.” Agent S. still had work to do and had to check up on Will in the hallway. Can you think of any safety things that the both of them might have to think about?This book is a simple, but effective way for young children to learn about being safe. Children can learn several tips by listening to Sophie (Agent S.) as she talks about how she keeps her brother Will safe by watching out for him. It’s quite easy to learn from her hints, but also by looking at the pictures. For example, we can easily see that the pushing and shoving around the playground equipment is dangerous. Newly independent readers will be able to tackle this very basic beginning chapter book with a minimum of assistance save for words such as “handrail.” In the back of the book is an index, a glossary, an activity (On the Lookout), and additional recommended book and website resources to explore. There are free downloadable complementary educational resources on the publisher’s website.MY HEALTHY HABITS: Be Aware! My Tips for Personal Safety Choose Good Food!
