Anyone know of any social stories for teaching about 'stranger danger'?

DD is just 6, and I want to start giving her some skills about dealing with strangers. I know that social stories are frequently used for children with SN, and they seem ideal for this purpose as well (DD has no special needs). Anyone got any links or recommendations?

Or any book suggestions? I have got the Anne Fine 'Stranger Danger' which I like, but the real thing I want to sort out is how to reconcile being polite and respectful to adults with not accepting behaviour which you don't like. And how to respond to someone who is nice and friendly to you.

I am a bit concerned that in RL situations I am often too anxious not to offend, and have put up in the past with behaviour towards myself which is pretty unacceptable, so I am probably not giving out the right messages to DD.

i've got a book called "my social stories book" by Carol Gray (off to double check authors)
I teach students with ASD, but like you say i have used the theory with my children who dont have sn, DS1 is dyslexic tho.

some good stuff in there, maybe borrow from library??
