Read this with my 9 year old. It is a great intro into online safety. It doesn't baby it down either. It does put it in an easy way for (older) elementary kids to understand. The one thing I didn't like was the conspiracy theory about TikTok being a front for the Chinese to spy on us. There is no proof, so I don't understand why that was included in a kids' book. Sounds more like the author's personal belief.
All in all this is a good book!

Amy Daniels provides great tips and information in this book about digital literacy, online safety and privacy. This is a quickly easy read for not only your kid but adults alike. I learned a few new things myself. A great resource of family discussions for parents as well.
