Summary

Terror acts have taken place in several countries recently, and the media attention they generate means that children are more exposed to hearing about terrorism than ever before. The authors, who are child psychologists, tackle a broad range of important but difficult questions with consideration, including: Why do some people and groups use terrorism? What are adults doing to prevent societies being hurt by terrorism? And what can we do when we feel worried and afraid? This book is designed for an adult to read along with a child and to help the adult understand the language to use when starting conversations about this difficult topic in order to help ease the child's misunderstandings and fears
