What kids don't know could hurt them.
This is a great book for kids who are familiar with the Internet and those that are not. I like the fact that the book is written for kids and with them in mind. It takes the time to explain what the Internet is and how it works. It explains why kids need to be careful, and most importantly, gives good advice on how to be careful. Best of all, it doesn't take a condescending or scolding tone with the reader, but explains why the Internet can be dangerous. This book also has some good common advice built in for parents, and addresses how parents need to be involved in what their kids are doing, not just vaguely aware.

I'd recommend this book to anyone who has a child or teenager who spends any time in chat rooms or significant amounts of time surfing the web. It's good information that is written with them in mind. It isn't a bad read for parents either.
