Joshua and Stranger Danger by Joan E. Derrick

They realise there is a need to teach children how to look at a person's behaviour to teach them what is normal behaviour for all people, including police officers and others whom they normally trust.Īfter the incident is resolved, Tav visits Joshua telling him how to recognise his intuition and listen to his body language - both are early warning signs of danger. Joshua's mum and teacher realise the difficulty young children would have in knowing who to trust from looking at appearances especially of people they are taught to trust. The images arrived two days before Red Shirt Day for Daniel Morecombe. The police officer states, 'No policeman had been sent to the school.' With Tav's help, Joshua is able to give the policeman a description of the man and the vehicle he is driving. Laila is an intuitive artist and has put her heart and soul into bringing Joshua and Stranger Danger to life. Checking with the Police Department confirms that his mum has not had an accident. Furthermore, predators are not restricted to strangers. Stranger danger is not new knowledge as predators have existed in all levels of society since time began. Joshua gets a very big fright and runs to his teacher who alerts the School Principal. Joshua and Stranger Danger is the first book in The Spiritual Heritage for Children Series. Instantly his soul buddy,Tav is between him and the policeman, shielding him - visible only to Joshua. Tav makes him aware this is not normal behaviour for a policeman reminding him of the school rules about not leaving the school grounds without his parent urging him to run to the safety of the schoolyard asking him to note what the policeman was doing. Before he can regain the safety of the schoolyard, he is stopped by a policeman who informs Joshua his mum is in hospital, having had an accident. Being very concerned about his mum, he is about to leave with the policeman. He finds himself in a stranger danger situation as he impulsively runs onto the footpath waving goodbye to his friend who is leaving for home with his mum. Summary Joshua is waiting for his mum to collect him from school as lessons are finished for the day.
