The Fire Protection Podcast : Episode #53 – Fire Prevention Month – Children’s Book Author Ken Korber

   

Episode Summary

Drew sits down with Ken Korber, author, and PA, about his book “Grace & Friends – A fire prevention/fire safety activity book“. October is fire safety awareness month and a great time to talk with children about the hazards of fire. Burn prevention is also a key topic in the book as what can happen to one’s skin. Paul Possenti, Director of Trauma Services and Emergency Management at the Yale New Haven Health System’s Bridgeport Hospital, is the co-author, bringing burn prevention to light. Most children’s books dedicated to fire safety are generic with a focus on firefighting. Grace and Friends allows kids to interact with fire safety through puzzles and activities. As a parent, one can learn a lot about burn prevention and fire safety through the book.
