More DescriptionDid you know? June is National Gun Violence Awareness Month.
A life is lost by gun violence every day in the United States, including children and adult lives. Gun violence is a prevalent topic in the news because people are using guns unsafely. Lock-downs/ Active Shooter Drills have become just as common as Fire Drills performed in all types of Preschool, Elementary, Middle, and High Schools.
Check out this book I wrote, sharing my experience of how I learned about guns at my grandparents and encourage children of all ages to sign the promise like I modeled to use guns safely. The purpose of this story is to distinguish what a gun does and to challenge parents/guardians, educators, teens, and children to have extended conversations after reading this story about how to use guns safely and what to do if someone is trying to harm themselves or others.
The author would like to donate a large portion of the proceeds from this book to the Sandy Hook Promise Foundation to continue their efforts protecting children and funding lifesaving programs like Starts with Hello, Say Something, and SHP Anonymous Reporting System.
I know gun violence changed my life on October 31, 2018. Plus, I would never want anyone to live in fear or sadness because people used guns unsafely. I hope this story will help save a life, and there will be a day in the future that keeps everyone safe and protected from guns.
