But things made attractive for consumers are also attractive to children. Many poisonings that occur involve children who are too youg and innocent to 'know better.' Children often can't recognize danger signals such as label warnings, strange odors, or peculiar tastes. Actually many poisonous things are attractive to children because the taste or smell GOOD, such as lemon scented furniture polish."

Spider-Man and Power Pack [National Committee for Prevention of Child Abuse comic book]
Description
An account of the resource
Marvel giveaway comic book produced in cooperation with the National Committee for Prevention of Child Abuse. Children are urged to tell a trusted adult if something has happened, and to know that there are phone numbers to call if you need help.

Cohn, D.P.H., Executive Director National Committee for Prevention of Child Abuse:<br /><br />"The purpose of this book is to teach you how to protect yourself from sexual abuse and what to do if it happens to you. I shows you that even people you know and trust can touch you in ways or in places that feel uncomfortable or yukky or just not right. Or, they can make you touch them in private places. And this book tells you that if this happens, it's not your fault--you can say no--and there is help out there."<br /><br />Back cover: "The National Education Association recognizes this publication as a viable attempt to education children about the problem of child sexual abuse."
