Behind the scenes

 * The book is based on a late 1950's through 1960's short Cold War educational film called "Duck and Cover", a film about a turtle named Bert, who would duck and cover at the first sign of any danger. The film was presented to students in classrooms across the United States to teach kids what to do in the event of a nuclear attack on the country. Oddly, you can find some of the real-life film's posters scattered in the various abandoned schools.
