Saying "no" is not enough. Child abduction by strangers or friends is constantly in the press. Warning children against these very real dangers is a difficult and often thankless task, but it has never been so important. "Close to Home" goes beyond teaching children to "stay safe" and "don't talk to strangers". These short stories contain realistic advice on those unsure situations where friends act strangely and strangers act friendly. The book is intended as a confidence builder and this very difficult subject is dealt with in a relaxed and sensitive manner to apppeal to children themselves.
