Unfortunately kids witness a lot of scary stuff -- but fortunately, the right tools of distraction might make a bad situation a little more positive.
That's the thought behind With Wings and A Halo, a Wisconsin-based nonprofit that puts packages of children's books in the back of police squad cars so kids have something to do if their family is dealing with tough stuff.
The program has been a hit; all 72 Wisconsin counties and 12 police departments in Illinois have stocked their squad cars with books.
