Review Quotes

5 stars Great book for young kids!

"I got this book to help explain being modest and keeping ourselves covered while in public to my 3 year old. She loves it and I think it does a great job at explaining what is appropriate and what is not to such a young audience!"

By D. Hutchison

Important topic, in a non-threatening way for small kids

Reviewed in the United States

Such a scary topic, but a critical one for parents of small kids. This book has been a good baseline for conversations with my preschooler about good touch and bad touch and her private areas. It's super short, like 8 pages, but gets right to the point for a small child.

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect Reviewed in the United States

Not too many words per page for the smaller kids. Perfect to-the-point story that my kid likes a lot.

Solid Book Reviewed in the United States

This is a great book for educating young kids about their bodies and how not all parts are for sharing. In an over-sexualized culture, it's important to teach kids about when to say NO. Love this book for that.

5 stars An Early Valuable Lesson

"This book is a great little simply put lesson, which aided my daughter a better understanding on what "parts" should be kept private, without getting into abuse, which other books have. She is too little to understand abuse and quite frankly, I don't want to scare her yet... I recommend this book when you can see that your child is getting a little curious." By Melissa K.

5 stars Great for toddlers!

"My two year old loves this book and we love it too!

Simple and Effective Reviewed in Canada

A book that is simple and effective. The language is clear and to the point. Can be used for younger kids as we talk about body autonomy and boundaries with them.We were aware that we needed anage-appropriatee book to begin talking about our bodies having private areas and saying no if necessary without scaring him and since he is so little he just loves the fish and crab illustrated and practically has the whole book memorized at this point."
