What in the World is Going On? Am I Safe?

About the Book

So, you want to teach your child about the September 11th attacks and the War On Terrorism, in a factual and straight-forward, yet comforting and reassuring age-appropriate manner, but you’re having trouble finding the words. What in the World is Going On? Am I Safe? (A Letter to American Kids) is the very book you’ve been waiting for.

Written as a letter to “The Kids of America,” it addresses two key points: Just what happened September 11th, and the issue of feeling safe. Read through it once for yourself, then share it with your child. It may make you cry, but it will also make you smile.
