COPE Books for Children: Storm Surges
Learn about risk reduction for storm surges in this illustrated book for children from COPE. This time the COPE squad travels to Hong Kong and the traditional fishing village of Tai O.
Candy, Ollie, Ping and Eddy find out how to be prepared for Storm Surges, how to make sure your home is safe, and what to do if you need to evacuate.
According to the Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction, children have a vital role in strengthening community resilience. COPE books have been developed in response to that call to empower children.
This child-friendly booklet is for kids 6-12 years old to generate storm surge awareness through animated characters and simple but strong messages.
COPE is a series of illustrated, not for profit storybooks created in 2018 by author Martha Keswick, award-winning illustrator Mariko Jesse and global disaster risk reduction expert Dr Timothy Sim.
