Both books feature Faux Paw the Techno Catsm—the adventurous, six-toed, Web-surfing cat who shares the lessons she’s learned about online safety. The books are colorful and age-appropriate and will help educators communicate important safety guidelines to children. Books are available in major bookstores and online at and .
