Using a 45mm blade, it is actually attached to the ruler, and so there is no 'slipping' with the blade, keeping those fingers safe. I'll try to attached an image from our website.

Because we are talking about a child, I would also recommend/see if it's possible (in addition to a good tool) to get a pair of Klutz gloves custom fit to her hand ...
I have one of these and love it - wish they made a little smaller one as well - but alas you can only cut straight stuff with it. I think a good pair of scissors - and as mentioned, some precuts might be good for her for another couple of years. :-) (I apologize if the picture pops up again - couldn't find a way to delete it)
