My Earthquake Preparedness Guide by Jackie Kloosterboer (Friesen Press, 90 pages) $13.95
Are you prepared to deal with a disaster situation? That is the big question Jackie Kloosterboer asks in this book and in the numerous presentations she makes every year to individuals and community groups.
Being prepared will allow you to get through a very difficult crisis and will ensure that you have taken care of your family. There is a lot more to consider than putting a flashlight and some bottled water in a box as your emergency kit.
Kloosterboer guides you through a full range of preparations that includes establishing meeting places for your family, alternate routes to get home, what to have packed, where to keep your supplies, how to make your home safe, looking after elderly parents, children and pets, and much more.
As well as assisting in all your planning efforts she also gives practical advice for staying safe should an earthquake strike, evacuation procedures and what you should do immediately afterwards.
Following Kloosterboer's suggestions will make you and your family better prepared for a disaster and increase your odds of getting through it without incident.
