This Level C "Rookie Reader" contains
rhyming stanzas that advise kids to wash
their hands, avoid eating wild berries
or sitting in wet paint. In soft
illustrations, multi-ethnic children
clutch adults' hands, climb trees
carefully, sit correctly in chairs, tie
their shoes, wear bike helmets, and
buckle their seatbelts. The cautionary
advice blends perfectly with the muted
art. The overall message shifts the
text's emphasis away from "don't do
this" to an upbeat ending: "Always be
safe in whatever you do. Nothing is
quite as important as you." This is an
important, educational book for any
library or home school collection.

We know that school bus drivers are very
well-trained, but they do not have
control over other driver's actions.
Because of this, communication between
the students and the driver is very
necessary. In this video, Bobby, a
third grader, copes with some events
where he is treated with a lack of
respect by some other students. On
his third day at school, he is excited
about a good report from his teacher and
is eager to share it with his mother.
Unfortunately, Bobby makes a big mistake
when he does not follow the instructions
for crossing safely in front of the bus.
A distracted driver ignores safety
procedures, and Bobby is hit by the car.
While Bobby's friends and classmates
wait to learn about the outcome, viewers
have time to reflect on the importance
of following safe procedures. A
joint venture between the Ohio
Association of Pupil Transportation and
The Broken Toy Project, this color
unrated educational drama on DVD
features students from the Worthington
City Schools. This intense,
disturbing film makes it a good
discussion-starting tool for children
fifth grade, and under. While the
procedures followed in the film are
based on Ohio rules, students and
drivers in all states can benefit from
viewing this film.
