The first book deals with Smartie the penguin asking an adult when strange images / ads pop on the screen, and when getting an email from unknown people. There's a song that the children can sing as well. This book is probably for pupils in reception / year 1.
The second book is probably more for older children in ks1. It deals with Digiduck who thinks of sharing a silly photo of his friend. In his dreams, the Wise_owl shows what will happen if Digiduck shares that photo - his friends won't invite him to playdates and parties as they are not happy with what Digiduck did. After getting up, Digiduck realises that it is important to make sensible choices online.
The storybook format is appropriate for pupils and it will be very relevant to them as friendship is an important aspect of being in school.
There are a few questions at the end that can be used for a class discussion as well. There is a guidance for parents as well on how to keep their children safe. Most parents are probably unsure of how to deal with e-safety and may not have any rules for how often their children can use computers. A story book like these with guidance gives parents an idea of how they can educate their children to be safe and responsible users of the internet at home.
