Jack & Choonia: Road Safety — Children's Storybook with Activities & Stickers

The book that could one day save yours and your child's life — told through adventure, not fear.

Jack the dog chases every smell and squirrel on the street. Choonia the dog thinks she can cross roads with her eyes closed. Together with their Girl — pink hair, blue overalls, always ready to help — they adventure through the streets of Toronto, learning how to stay safe in the real world.

"Stop! Before we cross, we look both ways!"

This is not a list of rules. It is a story your child will want to read again — and remember for life.

9 chapters. 9 real situations your child will face.

• Chapter 1 — Watch Out! The Road! — Crossing safely. Stop at the curb, look left, right, left again. Wait for green. Choonia learns the hard way why you never cross with your eyes closed.
• Chapter 2 — Choonia Wants to Ride a Bicycle — Three golden rules of cycling and the 2-V-1 helmet fit method. Even Choonia agrees: the helmet is magical armour.
• Chapter 3 — What to Do If You Get Lost in the City — Jack gets lost chasing a smell in a Toronto park. Stop. Don't panic. Stay visible. Show your tag. He finds his way back.
• Chapter 4 — The Trip to Grandma's: The Great Buckle-up Mission — Five rules for safe car travel all the way to Philadelphia. Everyone buckles up — kids, adults, and dogs when possible. Choonia becomes Queen of Safety.
• Chapter 5 — A Trip to the Park by Bus — Public transport safety on a Toronto bus. Stand on the sidewalk, hold the rail, get off calmly, wait until the bus drives away before crossing.
• Chapter 6 — The Magic Helmet of Superheroes — A helmet protects our most important computer — the head. The 2-V-1 rule explained step by step. Even if it presses on Choonia's ears.
• Chapter 7 — Who Comes to Help When Trouble Happens — Police, paramedics, firefighters: a team of superheroes with one goal — to save, protect, and help. Children learn who each vehicle is and why not to be afraid.
• Chapter 8 — What to Do If There's a Collision — Stay calm. Call 911. Don't move injured people. Even small kindness — saying something comforting — can make the world better.
• Chapter 9 — Drops That Make an Ocean — Every safe choice is a drop. Together they make a wave. Families can become volunteers and pass safety forward — one reminder at a time.
