The book that every parent should read to their child before they go on the Internet. The odds are very good that your child will not be negatively impacted by the Internet. But if they are, it can be devastating. Cyber Bullying KILLS kids. (This is book is dedicated to them and you can read some of their names inside.) Predators scour the Internet looking for victims. Identity Theft affects MILLIONS of people in the US and young adults are being targeted too. Phishing is a very common attack methodology and can literally take money out of your bank account. As a Computer Security professional, we call this a low probability, but high impact risk to your child. It is a risk you should take seriously. I'm tired of reading about kids killing/hurting themselves because of cyber bullying and cyber stalking - that's why I wrote this book. Please do not buy this book and just GIVE it to a child you care about. It is meant to be read together with an adult and a child. It is not "scary" or "alarming", it's a calm discussion (with some great illustrations) about some of the risks that are out there and reinforces the premise that if your child sees something that isn't right, they should reach out to an adult.
