'If children learn early to safeguard their personal information and to keep far away from Internet strangers, they will not become victims' - First Lady Laura Bush, from the Foreword. When I went to Washington I sure didn't expect THIS! Going to Washington to meet the First Lady was REALLY exciting! In fact, I got so excited that I almost made another big mistake on the Internet. Okay, I DID make a mistake. If it hadn't been for the First Lady, well, I could have been in big, BIG trouble. You'll find out when you read my story. Then you won't do the same dumb thing I did! B4N (that's 'bye for now' to us techno cats!). These '3 KEEPs' help me keep safe online: I KEEP SAFE all my personal information, I KEEP AWAY from online strangers, and I KEEP TELLING my parents or a trusted adult what I see on the Internet.
