Caught In The Web

In Caught in the Web, Barney has to help Echo and his friends after they get into trouble while using internet chat rooms and text messaging. It addresses some of the potential dangers surrounding children using the internet to communicate with people they don’t know. Later in the book, when Dizzy uses his mobile phone to send hurtful text messages to Spike, the problem of text bullying is explored.

The book is punctuated by activities that develop the learning objectives for the children. Caught In The Web is a fun and interactive support to children’s citizenship education in primary schools.
