Starting a difficult conversation

Crystal Woodman Miller’s book addresses school shootings through two connected subjects: emergency preparedness and the fear, anxiety, and trauma that awareness of such violence can bring. It aims to help children and their grown-ups discuss the topic, consider how to prepare for emergencies, and keep fear from taking over. The publisher describes a bold, minimalist page design, with text intended to be absorbed without visual distractions. Designed to be read together, the book frames a difficult subject as a shared conversation between children and adults.

Book overview

Help kids better understand what school shootings are and the emotions that come with the 'what if?'.

This is a kids' book about school shootings. School shootings have become an increasingly common and tragic reality. And while the chance of being impacted by one is not as likely as it feels, they are still very real - and so is the fear, anxiety, and trauma that comes with the awareness of them.

This book was made to help kids aged 5-9 (and their grownups) start important conversations about school shootings. It aims to give readers the tools to encourage everyone to be prepared for emergencies while reminding us that we should never let fear take over our lives.

A Kids Book About School Shootings features:
  • A large and bold, yet minimalist font design that allows kids freedom to absorb the words on the pages without distractions.
  • A friendly, approachable, empowering, and child-appropriate tone throughout.
  • An incredible and diverse group of authors in the series who are experts or have first-hand experience of the topic.
