A joyful adventure story that teaches children ages 5+ essential road safety skills through play, laughter, and adorable characters.
More than a story, it is a complete road safety toolkit for children and parents.
Both authors have personal experience with road accidents — as children and as parents. Every chapter includes a parent note with calm, practical guidance for continuing the conversation at home.
A full reward sticker sheet comes with every book — Jack, Choonia, and the girl, plus “I did it!” and name-tag stickers so children can label their own belongings.
Each of the 9 chapters ends with something to do: mazes, colouring pages, drawing prompts, spot-the-mistake scenes, and discussion questions for parents and kids to work through together.
Jack the dog and Choonia the cat get into real situations every child will face — crossing streets, riding bikes, getting lost, travelling by bus. Children learn by living the adventure alongside the characters, not by memorising rules.
How to cross safely — stop, look left, right, left again, wait for green.

Road safety does not happen by accident. It starts with awareness — and awareness starts early.
Jack & Choonia was created by two mothers who know firsthand what a road accident can take away. Through adventure, laughter, and loveable characters, this book gives children the language, the habits, and the confidence to make safe choices — before they ever step outside alone.
A portion of every sale supports INGA EDUCATES — a Canadian nonprofit dedicated to accident prevention and road safety education across Canada.
