Books with author Patrick Fitzgerald

Parents always want to know how they can teach their children about personal safety without instilling fear and yet still get the important message across. Pattie Fitzgerald has taken her highly regarded children’s curriculum and created “Super Duper Safety School” to do just that. Written with empowering child-friendly language, the main character “Sammy” helps parents and kids start the dialog by using simple rules that make sense to children. Sammy explains each rule using a straight-forward concept of “thumbs up and thumbs down” awareness. Super Duper Safety School teaches children how to be the “boss of their own body”, how to watch out for “tricky people” and how they can be safe around people they know or don’t know. Also included is a comprehensive Parent Education Guide to help parents understand their role and how they can significantly minimize the risks to their child. Super Duper Safety School comes highly recommended by pediatricians, teachers and parents as a valuable resource in educating children with an effective approach that works! For ages 4 and up.

Siblings Katie and her little brother Kyle learn about personal safety, private parts, and “thumbs up & thumbs down” touches by talking with their mom in a loving and easy-to-understand manner. With an empowering dialog that is never fearful, parents can use this book to begin this important discussion with their children. Katie and Kyle’s mom also explains the essential “No Secrets” rule in their family, and that it is never their fault if they get an “uh-oh feeling” from anyone. The story is written with a positive and engaging approach using child-friendly language and charming illustrations. A “Parent's Guide with Prevention Tips” is also included to help parents understand their role in keeping children safe from sexual abuse. By learning how to interpret red flags and how to recognize possible grooming scenarios, parents can significantly reduce the risks and keep their children safe from predators. “No Trespassing - This Is MY Body!” comes highly recommended by pediatricians, teachers and parents as a valuable tool in the fight against childhood sexual abuse. (For ages 4 to 8)

It includes these stories: The Sky Used to be BlueCleaning UpDeep JusticeRising UpLast WalkMore praise for Patrice Fitzgerald and the Karma series: The author does a fantastic job of retaining the atmosphere and claustrophobia of life underground and the characters are carefully constructed, exploring not only the effects of Silo life on the family dynamic, but the often complex relationships between the different Silo classes through the eyes of Karma and her family as she realises who she really is and has to decide whether to remain subdued and forget her past life, or choose a different path than the one chosen for her and challenge the status quo. ~ Eamon Ambrose, "Eamo the Geek" Patrice is a sci-fi, political thriller, and mystery writer who had a past as an intellectual property attorney.
