The Parent/Child Manual on Latchkey Kids

The Parent/Child Manual on Latchkey Kids is written by Charlene Solomon. I really enjoyed reading this novel and feel that it can be a very beneficial tool for parents to use with children who go home to an empty home. In day's age more and more children are going home to a house where no one is home. Solomon presents children with information on how to handle being home alone through interesting stories that keep the child engaged while also teaching them an important lesson. The book brings up various situations that could occur while the child is alone in the home and offers discussion questions for parents to converse with their children to get a true understanding about how their child feels being home alone.
