Miles Is the Boss of His Body by Abbie Schiller

The book focuses on a little girl who gets lost in a store, and through the narrative, provides tips for what to do to stay safe, and what to do if you’re separated from your caregiver. Thanks to authors Abbie Schiller and Samantha Kurtzman-Counter, my kids are learning some great safety strategies that will work for them in the real world, even while they think they’re just reading a story with great illustrations.

But lately we’ve been getting our talks just right with the help of reading When Lyla Got Lost (and Found), the latest in The Mother Company’s new series of safety books for kids.

Like all parents, I definitely don’t want to tell them more than they need to hear. Then she tests them at home with her 3-year-old son and 9-year-old daughter - and all their friends - to make sure they are also totally entertaining.I know that teaching my kids about personal safety is so important, but there seems to be a fine line between preparing kids for emergencies and scaring them about Things That Could Happen. She and Samantha collaborate with renowned parenting experts and educators to ensure all The Mother Company books and shows are age-appropriate and educational. She gets most of her notes from her son Jack, who just entered 1st grade.ĪBBIE SCHILLER is a children's book author, children's show creator and producer, and founder of The Mother Company.
