Learning About Difficult Subjects

How do you explain to a child why mass shootings happen? What are some concrete things that people can do to survive a mass shooting event?

This book attempts to answer these questions in an honest and straightforward manner with illustrations intended to keep children interested but not frightened.

It seems like there is a new mass shooting every week in the United States.

Lockdown and active shooter drills are now routine practice in schools and other venues. Children should learn about why they are happening.

The other books are Learning About Difficult Subjects: September 11, 2001, Learning About Difficult Subjects: Cancer, and Learning About Difficult Subjects: Dementia.
