Tweedledee and Tweedledum
Written by Anders Roseberg; Illustrated by Alexander Preyzner

Tweedledee and Tweedledum have never been told apart, until now!

Tweedledee and Tweedledum are probably the most known and most famous twins in the world, thanks to Lewis Carroll. That is to say, the most well-known and famous fictitious twins. The characters have been adapted and changed throughout the years, but we have never got to see who the real Tweedledee and Tweedledum are, until now.

Tweedledee and Tweedledum is lovely illustrated 32-page picture book written by Anders Roseberg and illustrated by Alexander Preyzner in a very John Tiennel and Maurice Sendak-style. It provides tongue-twister fun rhymes with plenty of giggles watching how much the same, yet how different, Tweedledee and Tweedledum really are.

Garfield’s Cyber Safety Adventures Comic Book Bundle
Written by Center for Cyber Safety and Education; Illustrated by Paws, Inc.; Edited by Center for Cyber Safety and Education

Garfield’s Cyber Safety Adventures is an award-winning and engaging digital citizenship program developed by top cybersecurity professionals to teach basic internet safety to elementary age children.

Research shows that on average a child gets a smart phone by 10 years old. We have also found that 40% of elementary age children have already chatted with a stranger online with many having given them their personal information and even met them. We can no longer wait until they are in middle or high school to begin teaching them basic safety practices like online stranger danger, not sharing personal information, not sharing passwords and being kind online to others.

With this goal in mind, the nonprofit Center for Cyber Safety and Education teamed up with the cybersecurity professionals at (ISC)2; and legendary cartoonist Jim Davis to create a fun, entertaining and interactive way for the children to learn how to be safe and secure online. Garfield and his friends share real life cyber situations and with the help of Dr. Cybrina and her sidekick BISBY, learn what they should and shouldn’t be doing on the internet.

It includes:

• 3 Garfield Activity Comic Books (Cyberbullying, Safe Posting, Privacy)
• 1 Garfield & Friends large wall poster
• 1 Garfield and Friends Trading Card
• PLUS 50% Garfield eLearning online subscription for 1st year!
