GREAT book; worthy of mroe than 2 stars!

While it's true there aren't formal apologies in this book, it's my opinion that it does not stop it from being a great book worthy of owning. I am going over Stranger Safety with my son, and this story was a great book to include in our discussion. Whitney, the little girl, gets distracted (as all kids do), and winds up not leaving the amusement park with her family. Her family wasn't necessarily being negligent, but thought she was in the second vehicle with other family members. I liked this book because it showed Whitney practicing what you're supposed to do if you get lost: find another mom and ask for help. This same concept is being taught in stranger safety courses, and this book did a wonderful job of showing it for children (even in the illustration). I was disappointed to see other reviewers only giving it 2 stars. It is worth more than that. Btw, I am also a teacher-1st grade. Each caregiver should know that this story isn't the only thing to be used when teaching this topic. It's a supplement, and a good one at that. (On a personal level, I love that they included prayer in the story, as well as showed a good family connection, including several siblings).
