What happens when a child faces an emergency and no adult is around?
Every day, children encounter situations - a fall, a fire, a friend who stops breathing - where a fast, calm response can mean the difference between life and death. Yet most kids are never taught what to do.
Kids to the Rescue changes that.
Written by Janis P. Walker, a registered nurse with over 50 years of experience in surgery, organ transplant teams, crisis intervention, and grief counseling, this book gives children - and the adults who care for them - a clear, compassionate guide to handling real emergencies with confidence.
This isn't just another safety book. Janis's vision is bigger: kids teaching kids. Using this book as their primary tool, children can learn to lead their peers through emergency and crisis situations, building skills that could one day save a life.
Inside, you'll discover:
- How to prepare children emotionally before an emergency strikes
- Step-by-step guidance for handling crisis situations calmly and effectively
- How to help kids understand and process their feelings before, during, and after an emergency
- A framework for teaching child-led rescue training in schools, homes, and youth programs
Children are our greatest investment. Give them the tools to protect themselves - and each other.
