What If...?

What if ...

...Your front tooth is knocked out?

...You are staying at a friend's house and by mistake you break something?

...You come home from school and you smell gas?

...Your hamster has escaped?

...You are bullied at school?

...There is a strange man lurking by the playground?

Today's world is perceived to be a much more dangerous place than it was twenty or thirty years' ago. Whether it is or not, events can happen in everyday life which can worry, scare or upset a child.

Containing up to 100 different scenarios, What if... is designed to appeal to children as they learn to deal with life independently and is an essential reference for all parents and teachers who want to bring up confident, happy children.

Reviews

Candid, thought-provoking, sassy and very very funny.

—— Daily Telegraph

Losada plays at being a real life Bridget Jones on the hunt for 'real' men. Her search takes her from building sites to the City trading floors as she tries to understand the male psyche via info from psycholigists and dating experts. Think Michael Moore meets 'Men are from Mars' only a lot funnier.

—— Glamour Magazine

Isabel Losada has achieved the perfect combination of humour, poignancy and intellectual rigour.

—— The Statesmen

Searching and Honest.

—— The Independent on Sunday

A very entertaining romp around a very modern mystery

—— Daily Express

This is a book for those who enjoy 'Men Are From Mars...' style observations, combined with insight into the science behind the findings, all wrapped up with a wry, witty technique and a dash of chick-lit for good measure.

—— Canary Wharf Citylife magazine

Well-written, funny and doesn't take itself too seriously

—— Irish Sunday Independent

[Druckerman's] attempts to emulate the French are recounted with wit and humility in this must read manual for new parents

—— Daily Mail
