A funny, rhyming book, that you meet strange animals outside in a shopping mall, at your front door, a bus stop and a pool. These are places kids can be at anytime of the day. So in this book when you see these animals and you don’t know them, you never talk to strangers. But the end of the book
The 3, 4 and 5 year old thought this book was the coolest. They loved the colorful pictures and the different kinds of animals that appeared on each page. But by time I was on the third page I had everyone one screaming out to me, NEVER TALK TO STRANGERS. It was the high light of our day.
For this activity we took a walk across the street to the playground. And when people would drive by I would ask them, “Do you know they in that red car.” One kid would say, “No.” And then I would ask, “why not?” And then a child from why on the other side of the park said, “BECAUSE WE NEVER TALK TO STRANGERS.” It was so funny. After that we had a coloring activity that they had to color or circle the person they wouldn’t know in the picture.

This a cute book. Various situations in which a child should never talk to strangers are shown. It is a great help in starting conversations with young ones about who to talk to and who not to. Its got a good message. Along with lesson the pages are filled with colourful artwork.

This book brilliantly highlights situations that children will find themselves in—whether they’re at home and the doorbell rings, or playing in the park, or mailing a letter on their street—and tells them what to do if a stranger (always portrayed as a large animal, such as a rhino)

I found this old gem at an estate sale. Great children's book. Basically it's telling the boy throughout the book not to talk to strange animals. :)
