At a time when children are unwittingly bombarded by inappropriate themes, it is essential that families have ongoing discussions about not keeping secrets. Children do not grow up with several different words for their elbows or knees. Yet parents are uncomfortable teaching the very words that can protect children from chronic abuse. Telling children to "not let someone" or "tell me if anyone does" is putting the burden on the child to decipher and assertively speak up after a confusing and perhaps shame-producing event. This book will allow a nonfrightening, normalizing review of anatomy and physiology and allow parents to teach healthy boundaries to their children. The shared reading can allow space for ongoing discussions void of parental distress and hypervigilance. A parents' guide will offer topics of discussion for changing developmental ages.
