This brightly illustrated title explains to children about bodily privacy and why private parts should be kept private. Children will learn that their body is their own and they can say 'no' if they don't want someone to touch their body. They will discover what is inappropriate and will be encouraged to speak up if they are uncomfortable with the way others treat them. It also covers the topic of secrets and when you shouldn't keep a secret.
The book seeks to respect other people's boundaries and to recognise that some children, particularly those with autism or anxiety, may find hugging or any type of touching unbearable.
It also covers bullying, such as pinching or kicking, and shows children the best way to speak up to help stop these things happening.
Written by Louise Spilsbury, the text explains, simply and clearly, without alarm, why bodily privacy is important.
