Finally!

Keepsafe collects realistic, non-frightening safety tips in one, easy-to-read book. The format is perfect for our "time-crunched" lives; each chapter is only a few pages long. Each idea and suggestion is understandable and logical for our everyday lives. The authors' experience and backgrounds in public safety are impressive, and while I'm certain that they have dealt with safety issues we can't begin to comprehend, this collection of safety practices is not overly complex or difficult. In fact, the tone is nicely conversational.This book is an interesting, practical, understandable and all-encompassing guide to being safer and keeping our families safer. Thank you to the 2 dedicated safety professionals for putting it all in one place.

Everyone should read this book!

The unfortunate thing about "common sense is that it's so common it is often taken for granted. That is precisely what this book will prevent. I don't know how many times it happened but as I read this book I found myself repeatedly saying to myself, "What a great idea!" The suggestions in this book are current, realistic, and easy to apply. Things like having your child carry one of your business cards on his or her person, or getting to know by name the bus driver who takes your child to school each day. They are simple, plain, and the kinds of things that will prevent the sort of tragedy that results in one saying "If I'd only done this..." Beyond that, the suggestions are not the kinds of things that will keep you locked behind closed doors. There's nothing paranoid here. Just common sense. "Keep Safe" is well written and easy to read. It has clearly been well researched by two authors who have spent their careers in the field of public safety. Having been in the law enforcement field for eleven years myself, I recommend "Keep Safe" to anyone who wants to live more safely, and thus more fully, in a dangerous world.
