Synopsis

A School Shooting and Lockdown Training Picture Book

Updated edition

When faced with danger you must DO something.

The teacher at the Ant Hill School wants her students to be prepared - for everything! One day, she teaches her students what to do if a "dangerous someone" is in their school.

"I'll be your shepherd, and you're all my sheep,
so you must do what I say.
Pretend there's a wolf in our building,
and we MUST stay out of his way!"

"We need a great plan of action
in case we start to get scared.
The ALICE Plan will work the best,
to help us be prepared."

Unfortunately, in the world we now live in, we must ask the essential question: What are the options for survival if we find ourselves in a violent intruder event?

I'm Not Scared...I'm Prepared! will enhance the ALICE concepts and make them applicable to children of all ages in a non-fearful way. By using this book, children can develop a better understanding of what needs to be done if they ever encounter a "dangerous someone."
