Author Tony Jaksa lives in Northern Minnesota with his wife, Lori, and her dog, Charlie. Besides writing children's books and his job in Worker Safety, he enjoys hunting, fishing and golfing. During his working hours he instructs work teams and students on safe response to the hazards that are inherent to the workplace and works extensively on safety program development, procedural updates and worksite Compliance. Currently, Tony is working across the country as the Site Safety & Health Officer (SSHO), on large rehabilitation construction projects in the Hydropower Industry. During his off-work hours, he and his wife spend time developing their mission and hobby, writing children's picture books on Kids' Safety. Through this effort, they hope to find a path to early childhood injury-prevention learning and to help build the next ready-to-work safety generation.

MISSION STATEMENT:

Our mission is to teach kids what it means when we, adults, say, "Be Careful." We all say it to our kids, but think of what it means to them. Our goal is, through a Picture-Book Series and "The Kids' Safety Squad" website, to teach kids what hazards are around them in their daily lives, how to recognize these dangers and how to avoid them, and in turn to learn what it means to "Be Careful."

Stay Safe,

Pops, Bug and Bud

Personal note:

I have concluded that it's near-criminal to know what we know about injury prevention in the adult safety world, and not share that info with our kids. We are tired of what some folks say when kids get hurt - "Ah, kids will be kids," "He's a boy," - "They have to learn." What we need to want to stop is the pain and tears of the little people in our lives.
