See a case in action.
Two quick cases from the book, the way kids see them.
One question solves every case.
"What are they asking me to do, and does it fit our plan?"
Kids don't have to judge if someone is "good" or "bad". They look at the request, never at how someone looks.
Read a real case.
A short story, then Detective Notes to work through together.
Written with grown-ups in mind.
Correct body-part names are used briefly, with no graphic detail. Kids can skip any topic and never have to share a personal experience. A Guide for Grown-Ups at the back helps you talk calmly.
Keeping kids safe is always the grown-ups' job. This book helps kids know they can always come to you.
Everyday moments. Important choices.
27 cases to explore together.
- Part 1
Out and About
Halloween treats, a lost dog request, a ride that wasn't in the plan.
- Part 2
Playdates and Sleepovers
Surprise stops, a game with a new rule, the call home.
- Part 3
Buses, Clubs and School Trips
The pickup password, a different seat, the headcount.
- Part 4
Games, Messages and Photos
The teammate with questions, the photo with extra clues, the prize with a countdown.
- Part 5
Speaking Up and Getting Help
The dare, the firm voice, the note that started the conversation.
Give them words.
Help them find their voice.
Practise together, one case at a time. Every case ends with a badge to colour in, all the way to a real certificate.
Before you buy.
What age is it for?
Ages 8 to 12. Younger children can enjoy it read aloud with a grown-up.
Will it scare my child?
No. Every case is a calm, everyday moment, like Halloween, a party pickup or a school trip. The message all the way through is confidence, not fear.
Can my child read it alone?
Yes. Kids can read it on their own and come back to you with questions, or you can read a case together before an outing.
Does it cover body safety?
Yes, gently. Correct names for body parts are used briefly, with no graphic detail, and kids can skip any topic.
Will my child have to share personal experiences?
Never. The questions are about Leo and Elsa's cases, not your child's own life.
Is there help for parents?
Yes. A Guide for Grown-Ups at the back helps you talk calmly, make family plans, and know what to do if your child tells you something.
What's inside besides the stories?
27 cases across 5 parts, plus a Detective Toolkit with a badge tracker, a Spot the Clue quiz, five firm phrases, planning pages, a pledge and a certificate.
