Two new free eBooks for kids - Animishmash and the Cyber Bullfrog (for ages 7 and up) and The Pirate's Donut (for ages 3 and up) – deal with the subjects of cyberbullying and safe online searching, respectively. Both books pose situations for kids to ponder, and offer choices about what they should do. You will need to read the books out loud to non-readers, but both books can be used as discussion starters on issues of digital safety.
