DO ADULTS HAVE TO SAY ABOUT IT?"Shout No is the perfect way to teach little ones what to do when they're faced with tricky situations and people. With clear and concise directions, your child will be empowered to act in their own self defense. I highly recommend this book as a tool for anyone interested in protecting children from harm." -GRETA ESKRIDGE, AUTHOR OF "ADVENTURING TOGETHER" AND CHILD ADVOCATE "Increasing safety for a child is not just a conversation, and certainly not about increasing fear, but includes PRACTICE and CONDITIONING our kids to establish confidence in what to do when they feel uncomfortable or unsafe. I encourage every caregiver and child to not just read this book...but PRACTICE THIS BOOK so kids don't have to think of what to do when they feel threatened." - KIRSTEN PARKER-SMITH, SOCIAL WORKER "As a story time leader and children's library event planner, I feel that I could read this book to a group of kids at the library and have it explain "stranger dangers," or as the book refers to them, "tricky people." Shout No is intentional about addressing real-life endangerment and carefully conveys how to confront them at a child's level." - MARY PAVALONIS, YOUTH SERVICES, LIBRARIAN "Whether you are a rookie or a seasoned veteran, teachers everywhere will be praising Shout No. Shout No addresses a very serious and all too common situation in a way that's easy to understand for children. It opens the door for more conversations between children and their trusted adults. This book will have a permanent spot on my personal and classroom bookshelves." -ANGELA DAVIS, ELEMENTARY SCHOOL TEACHER "I highly recommend this book to all parents as a great way to build children's confidence, as well as the needed tools and life skills to empower them to stand up for themselves as they grow up in today's world."- NELL MIKKELSON, ELEMENTARY SCHOOL COUNSELOR
