Let's Talk About Body Boundaries, Consent & Respect: A book to teach children about body ownership, respectful relationships, feelings and emotions, choices, and recognizing bullying behaviors

Brought this for my 9 & 5 year old boys to discuss body boundaries. They often fight & wanted them to understand each other’s personal space. Very good read & brought about some good discussions. I use quotes from the book when they’re having trouble with each other. Doesn’t always work, both neurodivergent, but consistency will hopefully absorb into their minds! I want them to grow up & be consensual with their relationships, for themselves & others. Let’s raise good men!

I absolutely love this book. My daughter is only 21 months but it’s never too early to start introducing consent and respect! We read through it together, talk about the images and she’s now began repeating bits to me, for example I’ll point to the girl who doesn’t want a kiss and she will say “she’s sad” and when I ask why she replies “don’t want kiss, want hi five”. It shows me she is beginning to understand parts of the book, she has also started to tell us no if we ask for a hug or kiss and she’s not in the mood, which is great, as she’s learning her body is hers. As the book says “your body is yours, and you are the boss of it!”. I think this book is a great foundation and starting point for any parent. The illustrations are great too, although this probably is aimed at older children, it’s definitely engaging for toddlers thanks to the beautiful imagery!

Very good book

Adorable book! Many useful information and guidance how to speak with child about boundaries. My bravo to the authors 🙏

Very good for pre-teens to understand about sex to protect themselves.

Great book for purpose. Quote engaging, even for thos qho are quite young. Concepts are at a good level.

A really clear and accessible book about boundaries. It covers a lot of areas including personal space, consent, privacy, trustworthy safety network etc. It brings an important subject down to a child’s level without being scary. Lovely pictures too.

Brilliant book about consent and respect

As someone who worked a lot with child SA survivors, I read this regularly to my three year old who started preschool last year, and recommend it to everyone. It covers everything from body boundaries (whether holding hands, hitting, or kissing) to waiting your turn, to telling parents if your body bubble isn’t respected.

You need to get this kinda books for your kids

This book did a great job of teaching my child body boundaries. It has tips for parents communication as well which is so nice. We tried having these conversations before she started pre-school, but this book is what really helped that conversation take off. I like how interactive it is.
