[null and void]

Okay, I would add a cartoon man stopping on the stop panel, dropping in the drop panel and curling into a fetal position in the cower panel.

I’d also put these three panels on the same side of the paper.

Okay, I would add a cartoon man stopping on the stop panel, dropping in the drop panel and curling into a fetal position in the cower panel.

I was originally hoping to do that, but I couldn't find a series that were stylistically similar which I actually liked. If I had some skill in drawing I'd do it in the Stop, Drop, Roll sort of style. :(

I’d also put these three panels on the same side of the paper.

That was one of the options for layout, I went with the more traditional one where the 4th panel (Cower) would be hidden by the cover flap. I think to do it your way I'd have to shuffle things around quite a bit and it would be non-standard reading order. More to consider.

A bit like this:

But perhaps more stylistically like:

Think 1950's government handout...
