Description

A Children’s Guide to Gun Safety — Be Brave. Be Smart. Be Safe. is a comforting, story-driven audio experience that shows kids exactly what to do if they ever see a gun—without fear or glamorization. Narrated by David Burnell, a real-life rescuer and humanitarian, this uplifting production blends friendly storytelling, simple repetition, and a memorable safety song so children remember the four essential steps:

Stop. Don’t touch. Walk away. Tell a grown-up.

In short scenes—playground, sleepover, classroom—young listeners learn to make smart, calm choices, ask trusted adults for help, and practice everyday habits of respect and kindness. A brief call-and-response Hero’s Promise reinforces confidence and responsibility, closing with a hopeful message: you don’t need a uniform to be a hero—every safe choice makes the world better.
