If you’ve never been walking with Julianna when she runs smack into something at eye level, you might not understand why we laughed so hard when this book came home in her backpack.

My name is Julianna.

This is a story about keeping my eyes ahead.

Sometimes when I walk,
I look down at the ground.

When I look down at the ground,
I can run into things and get hurt.

Sometimes I run into walls.
It is not safe to run into walls.

Sometimes I run into doors.
It is not safe to run into doors.

Sometimes I run into friends.
It is not safe to run into friends.

If I keep my eyes ahead,
I will not run into my friends.
I will be safe.

If I keep my eyes ahead,
I will not run into doors.
I will be safe.

If I keep my eyes ahead,
I will not run into walls.
I will be safe.

My name is Julianna.
I will keep my eyes ahead.
I will be safe.

Well…at least we know what language to use now!
