Editorial Reviews

Review
A brilliant, insightful resource that all parents should share with their children. The principles in I Sit and Stay can help all lost persons be found safe, making the great outdoors much more enjoyable for everyone! -- Eric Sheets, President, CARDA(California Rescue Dog Association) and K9 Handler

I Sit and Stay, written for children, with essential and fun parental interaction, contains the absolute basics that all children should know to help themselves survive and to be found if they become lost in the wilderness. Parents, you may rest easier knowing your child possesses the knowledge, basic equipment, and skills contained in this fun guide. I can assure you that we in the search and rescue profession will. I highly recommend this guide! -- Matt Scharper, California State Search and Rescue Coordinator -Governor's Office of Emergency Services

Parents, you need to share the information in this book with your children. It could save their lives. -- Ron Seitz, Chief, ALCOSAR (Alameda County Sheriffs Office Search and Rescue) and K9 Handler

Product Description
I Sit and Stay is a unique safety guide for all children and parents who enjoy the outdoors. As families explore the natural beauty of America's national parks, forests, and wilderness areas, they need to be prepared. A child's disappearance while camping or hiking is every parent's greatest fear. Leah Waarvik, a dedicated search-and-rescue professional, empowers children by showing them how to help themselves, and educates parents about a subject that most know little about. I Sit and Stay uses real-life search-and-rescue dogs to teach the lessons that can save lives. The cute and talented dogs, Emma and Koa, make being lost less scary. They teach kids what special items to carry and how to use them to stay safe, and give kids tips to assure being found if they get lost. Rescue professionals agree that these are the most important things to remember, and no other book offers this vital information. Boxed set includes paperback book and survival kit.

5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant Book, December 21, 2008
This is a brilliant idea for a book. I bought it for my nephew who's 4 years old. He loves reading about the dogs and has learned what to do if he ever gets lost. A must have for all children.

5.0 out of 5 stars Every parent needs this book!, December 4, 2008
By Albert E. (Seattle, WA) - See all my reviews
I bought this book and survival kit for my next door neighbor after they almost had a full blown search for their missing 3 year old on Thanksgiving day. He was found right away, but everyone (including the boy) was very scared. We ALL love the book, and the 3 year old is captivated by Emma and her pals. He's learned how and when to use the whistle and proudly recites the "I Sit and Stay" poem.

I'm now ordering copies for everyone I know with children and for my local Montessori school. I also found extra kits for families with more than one child. Kit for I Sit and Stay A Survival Guide for Kids and Parents Too!

5.0 out of 5 stars Lots of appeal for little ones!, December 4, 2008
I gave the book to my 6 year-old nephew for his birthday, and later asked him if he enjoyed it. He said he really liked the dogs and the pictures. But when I asked him what he learned, I was impressed when he described how to use the mirror (included with the book) to signal airplanes if he gets lost outside. Cool!
