Meet Firefighter Finn, Juliet, Lily, Sparky the Dalmatian, and Blaze the silliest fire engine in Maplewood — and get ready for the most important safety lesson your child will ever laugh their way through. When Lily stops to look at toys in a shop window and suddenly finds herself face to face with a stranger, she has to remember everything Firefighter Finn taught her. Can a four-year-old in an oversized yellow jacket with sleeves flopping over her hands really say NO to a grown-up? Can she really RUN? Can she really find her trusted person all by herself? She absolutely can. And so can YOUR child. NEVER GO WITH STRANGERS! is a warm, funny, and genuinely empowering picture book for children aged 2 to 8 that tackles one of the most important safety topics a child can learn — in a way that makes them feel brave, capable, and prepared rather than scared. Through the adventures of Finn and his crew, children discover: 🚒 What a stranger actually is — and why looking friendly does not mean being safe 🚒 The THREE rules every child needs to know — SAY NO, RUN AWAY, and TELL A TRUSTED GROWN-UP 🚒 Why your body belongs only to you 🚒 What tricky things strangers sometimes say — and how to recognise them 🚒 How to make a secret family safety password 🚒 Where the safe places are if you ever need help 🚒 How to trust the funny feeling in your tummy when something is wrong 🚒 That it is always okay to make noise, kick, and run 🚒 That online strangers are still strangers 🚒 That calling for help is the bravest thing you can do Blaze the fire engine holds up his very important sign. Juliet has a diagram — she always has a diagram. Sparky practises Rule Two by running across the entire park and not stopping when asked. And Lily, four years old and absolutely committed to the cause, delivers a NO THANK YOU that shakes the Maplewood street. This book does not frighten children. It equips them. It gives them the words, the rules, and the confidence to know that their voice is powerful — and that the adults in their life are always in their corner. Perfect for bedtime reading, classroom discussions, and family safety conversations. Includes a cut-out fridge reminder page with space for your family safety password and your child's trusted people.
