<DIV><p class="MsoNormal">Without being taught about body boundaries, a child may be too young to understand when abuse is happening—or that it’s wrong. This straightforward, gentle book offers a tool parents, teachers, and counselors can use to help children feel, be, and stay safe. The rhyming story and simple, friendly illustrations provide a way to sensitively share and discuss the topic, guiding young children to understand that their private parts belong to them alone. The overriding message of <I>My Body Belongs to Me</I> is that if someone touches your private parts, tell your mom, your dad, your teacher, or another safe adult.</p></div>
