This film shows young children what to do in case of an atomic attack. The film opens with "Bert the Turtle" wobbling down the street and singing a song, "Duck and Cover." When there is a bright flash, Bert immediately ducks into his shell. The narrator explains that when there is a bright flash - brighter than the sun - children should follow Bert's example. The film shifts to a classroom of youngsters who are practicing what to do in the case of an atomic attack. The narrator says that this new danger can cause several types of injury. He tells them that it can knock them down or burn them. He explains that many schools are talking about atomic attacks and that many youngsters and their teachers are learning the best ways of protection. The simple rule that they should be like Bert, who ducks and covers, is emphasized. The film ends by suggesting that they must always be ready to duck and cover when there is an atomic explosion.
