The story begins at school as Tulip and her friend Pickle learn about STOP and Helping Hands, two methods, children can use in unsafe or violent circumstances. When Tulip comes home after school, she finds her father expressing his anger toward her mother in harmful ways. She rescues her brother Rocky and hides in her bedroom where she uses STOP and Helping Hands to think of people who can help them. She then leads Rocky to Pickle's house, where she calls her Aunt Loddy. Many children find themselves in unsafe situations without knowing what they can do to protect themselves. This Tulip Doesn't Feel Safe DVD teaches children that they always have choices. They learn to trust their feelings, identify their options, and make decisions that will keep them safe. It gives children (K-3) simple and specific tools to use, and it helps correct the misconceptions kids often have that they cause the problems and that they can control, change, or cure them.

One hundred percent of the net proceeds from the sales of the Random House edition of Hockney's Alphabet will go to the American Friends of AIDS Crisis Trust for AIDS research and services to people with AIDS.
Sir Stephen Spender invited a number of distinguished writers in Britain and America to contribute original texts for an alphabet to be specially drawn by David Hockney, the proceeds of which would benefit AIDS research and services to people with AIDS. The result is this stunning volume of ABCs for grown-ups, a unique anthology of art and literature.
Here are the letters of the alphabet, in David Hockney's inimitable style -- created in a variety of media, including collage and laser copier -- with brief accompanying texts by a dazzling array of world-class writers. Each was assigned to his or her letter by Stephen Spender, who himself contributed the Preface and a poem for the letter A.
Those who love words will delight in the texts, which include, among others:
-- Joyce Carol Oates on B, for birth, the "most profound" of all the Bs.
-- Iris Murdoch on C, a "warm, comforting, friendly" letter.
-- Paul Theroux on D, for death: "An endless night so awful to contemplate that it can make us love life and value it with such passion that it may be the ultimate cause of all joy and all art."
-- Gore Vidal on E: "So very like a comb."
-- Norman Mailer on F: "What a compliment you are paying me with that letter."
-- Martin Amis on H, for homosexual: "It asks for courage. It demands courage."
-- Erica Jong on I, a poem, "To the Letter I."
-- Margaret Drabble on L, for laughter: "Do we not, in looking back on friendships, holidays, parties, good times, remember the laughter even when the jokes are forgotten?"
-- Doris Lessing on P, for pumpkin: "One of the joys of autumn."
-- Kazuo Ishiguro on T, for T-bone steak: "A dish renowned for its directness and simplicity."
-- Julian Barnes on U, for unless: "The most sinister word in the English language."
-- John Updike on V, for venereal, but also for victory.
-- Susan Sontag on W, for weather.
-- Anthony Burgess on X, a poem, "An Elegy for X."
Along the way, there is a previously unpublished letter, donated to the project by Mrs. Valerie Eliot, from T. S. Eliot to a young, aspiring writer, and a short essay by Arthur Miller comparing contemporary prejudice against AIDS to the prejudice against tuberculosis he remembers from his childhood.
"The world's Alphabets -- Alpha to Omega," says Stephen Spender in the Preface, "are drums and trumpets, clarion calls, State Funerals, Massed Choirs, Burial and Redemption." Hockney's Alphabet is all that, as well as an enchanting and thought-provoking gift book that will help end the AIDS crisis here and all over the world.
