About this product
Product Information
José and Alex's adventures in the bushes, tall grasses, and wooded areas put them at risk for getting ticks. During their exploring, they discover hidden treasures and also hidden dangers. Alex struggles with José's discovery of one such danger--a tick--and how it will change their adventures. Back at home, Alex tells her mother, "He said he didn't feel the tick climb on him. He said his mom found it when she did a tick check. Mom, what's a tick check?" Children five to fourteen years old are the most at risk for getting Lyme and tick-borne diseases. Hide-and-Seek: No Ticks, Please offers Lyme disease prevention education for school-age children, and through the No Ticks, Please steps they discover how to prevent ticks from transmitting diseases. This non-threatening story will be a valuable companion to any home library--and for any child that likes to play outdoors.

Reviews
"A slim guide that aims to equip children with important information about ticks. Alex wants to play with her friend Jose´, but Jose´ is too sick. Her mother explains that Jose´ was bitten by a tick, which gave him a disease that made him tired and weak. Alex's mother pulls out a book called No Ticks Please to explain where ticks hide, how they transmit diseases and how people can avoid them. The book explains that ticks are often found in "woods, bushes, and tall grasses," and repeats the phrase often to drive the point home for a young audience. Alex also learns that the remarkably tiny ticks hide in warm, moist spaces and seek out the warm bodies of animals, where they live and drink blood: "The warm body can be a mouse, a chipmunk, or other creatures full of mischief and spunk." The book-within-a-book is written in an awkward meter, with unnecessary rhymes, but it carries an important message: Yes, you can still go on adventures, but you need to be careful. Fox ( No Ticks Please , 2011, etc.) manages to explain something that could potentially alarm children-tiny, vampire-like bugs that carry a debilitating disease-in a straightforward, nonfrightening way. She makes it clear how serious Lyme disease and other tick-borne illnesses are, but also shows Jose´ visiting the doctor, getting better and going back outside to play again. Seven pages of plain-language tips for avoiding ticks and removing them follow the story, with illustrations of campsites, constructions sites, woodpiles and other tick hangouts that will, hopefully, stick with kids. The book is fully illustrated in color, although the humans come off looking a bit stiff. That said, Seward's illustrations are realistic enough that kids will be able to recognize hard-to-spot ticks if they happen to see one. A useful guide to avoiding a dangerous bug." -Kirkus Reviews "Dr. Fox's clear, straightforward writing makes Hide-and-Seek: No Ticks, Please an easy-to-use instructional resource. This information-rich book is an ideal resource for health-related research projects at the elementary level." -Kimberly Dyar, Nationally Board Certified Teacher, M.
