DEPUTY DAD AIMS TO PROMOTE CHILD SAFETY AND MAKE A DIFFERENCE

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Contact Name: Robert Kahn

Phone Number: (775) 575-6686

Website: http://robertkahn.freeservers.com

Email: JROKA@att.net

FERNLEY, NV - Robert Kahn wants to keep kids safe - all kids. His entire

career has been dedicated to his love for children and the importance of

their education. Bob holds a Masters in Education; taught sixth grade for

ten years; became a deputy sheriff and is now a D.A.R.E. (Drug Abuse

Resistance Education) officer for the state of Nevada. He has recently

begun to publish a series of child safety booklets that are a necessity for

every child in your life.

"Bobby and Mandee's Too Safe for Strangers," and "Bobby and Mandee's Too

Smart for Bullies" are the first two titles in his Children's Safety series.

These first two are told from the viewpoint of his own children, Bobby (11)

as the narrator and Mandee (9) is the main character. His son, Bobby, plays

an even more important, albeit behind-the-scenes, role among Kahn's youthful

audience. Bobby is a high-functioning autistic. He requires that things be

very literal. Kahn uses this point to stress his books' simplicity and

effectiveness with all children. Utilizing education and experience, Robert

Kahn created his books to teach and reinforce basic safety rules to children

of all ages. Concepts are simple, clear and direct. With repetition and

reinforcement from teachers and parents, these books save lives and prevent

tragedy. Kahn wants everyone to be able to use them and he wants everyone

to have access to them.

At a time when Bob began to give up hope of ever publishing this series, a

fellow deputy sheriff called him to extend congratulations and

thanks. The sheriff's deputy told him that someone had tried to abduct a

little girl. This little girl had recently learned "stranger/danger" from

Kahn. But, thanks to his instruction, she knew what to do and got away.

To date, Kahn's methodology has successfully prevented twenty six documented

child abductions in his county alone. It may be an even greater amount than

that, with some incidents going unreported. Within the pages of these

booklets, Kahn gives adults and children the absolutely essential tools to

effectively communicate danger and keep children alert and safe without

being constantly fearful. "With education there is knowledge and with that

knowledge - a power that is insurmountable." says Kahn.

Where to find books by Robert Kahn:

"Bobby and Mandee's Too Smart for Bullies," and "Bobby and Mandee's Too Safe

for Strangers," books are available for individual purchase from Robert

Kahn's website at http://robertkahn.freeservers.com or for anyone who would

like to carry the books in their store at www.FutureHorizons-autism.com.

For more information, contact Future Horizons, Inc., 721 W. Abram St.,

About the Book (Excerpts & Info)

Austy Nunziata has spent two years pining for her married best friend and about the same amount of time berating herself for it. In fact, she's so adept at trying to stamp out her feelings that she could probably write a How-To guide on the subject. One, move 3,000 miles away from your best friend. Two, get a time-consuming job so you don't have time to think about your best friend. Three, hang out with new friends who aren't anywhere as enchanting as your best friend. Four, get involved with a striking woman who is smart, sexy, caring and, most importantly, available, unlike your best friend. Five, hope the new love interest doesn't find out about your pathetic best friend obsession before you have time to replace it with actual life-altering love.... (Continue reading)
