Ginormous Jo's Lost Buddy (The Ginormous Series, #8) / The Ginormous Series (ePub)

Fun teaching tools for parent and teacher, helping our young surf life's tricky stuff (3-12yrs)

Need to teach your little ones the safety rules if they get lost?
Want to reaffirm to young children basic safety practices?

Let Ginormous Jo and her friends demonstrate the best ways to handle getting lost. In this new adventure everyone listens intently as Buddy, the new neighbours dog, explains how horrible and scary it was to get lost. Of course, he knew he shouldn't have gone through that open gate alone. But disobeying is forgivable if you find yourself knowing you made a mistake and trying to make it better.

In the retelling of his tale, Buddy demonstrates what to do if lost. Find an authority person like a police officer, security guard, lifeguard, or storekeeper. Find a safe place to ask for help, and make a safe meeting point when out with family. The dogs discuss knowing your phone number, address, and full name to give to an authority figure.

This story is a great way to teach children the important safety rules in case they find themselves lost. It will make a great addition to any reading library at home or in the classroom. And a great read-aloud during safety units in school for teachers.
