No Means No!: Teaching personal boundaries, consent; empowering children by respecting their choices and right to say 'no!' Review: Great book, with a powerful message - I am rewriting this review to reflect book changes. This book has since been fixed for the kindle, and after the issues with the kindle the seller was kind enough to send me a hard-copy as I waited for the kindle version to be fixed. This book is wonderful at teaching children about their bodies and empowering them that their body is theirs, and that the choices that they make about their body should be respected. The "No means no" mantra is both empowering, firm, clear, and simple to remember. When my family try to force kisses, and hugs my daughter doesn't have to come up with an excuse, she knows that if she doesn't want a kiss, or a hug, that it is her body and "No means no". We are so used to a society where you have to kiss a relative, you have to accept hugs, you have to put on that scratchy sweater. It is these ideals that can leave our children vulnerable. A lot of sexual abuse is usually committed by people closest to you, and enforcing the idea to children that they have to do what adults say in regards to their body can leave them open to abuse. It can leave them open to anxiety about not having control over their surroundings. Don't get me wrong, there is a time and a place where I do have to enforce certain things, as a parent, it is unavoidable. And in those times we will talk about it. Teaching your child about their body, giving them power over their body, teaching them what is okay, and not okay in regards to their body is probably one of the most important things. You will give them confidence, you will allow them to make choices which will shape them as an adult to both respect their body, and know that no one has the right to touch them unless they want it. It's really time to make a change and a stand, rape culture has become a big thing. And it really starts at a young age. We teach boys that it's okay to touch and poke and irritate girls because "boys will be boys" We teach our children to accept being touched when they don't want to because "An adult says so". If we start empowering our children at a young age that they have a say in their body, and to respect "No" - We will shape a respectful and confident generation. And when "no's" can't happen - We can use these moments to educate our children - - For example "I'm sorry but I had to hold your hand as we were crossing a busy road and it was dangerous" In short - This book is an excellent start at teaching the power of no, the respect that their body is theirs, and that no one has the right to touch them if they say no. It is beautifully illustrated, and very simply written and easy to follow, and it is easy to start conversations with your child about each subject. I highly recommend this children if you are wanting to teach your child about their bodily rights, and the power and usage of no. Review: Very informative for small children - Very cute and informative book for young kids illustrations are great wording is great. I’m really glad I got my granddaughter this book. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #30,594 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #304 in Children's Self-Esteem Books #567 in Children's Books on Emotions & Feelings (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 4.7 out of 5 stars (1,364) | | Dimensions | 7.8 x 0.2 x 9.8 inches | | Edition | Illustrated | | Grade level | Kindergarten - Preschool | | ISBN-10 | 1925089223 | | ISBN-13 | 978-1925089226 | | Item Weight | 3.21 ounces | | Language | English | | Print length | 28 pages | | Publication date | March 28, 2015 | | Publisher | Educate to Empower Publishing | | Reading age | 2 - 5 years, from customers | ## Images ![No Means No!: Teaching personal boundaries, consent; empowering children by respecting their choices and right to say 'no!' - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71U149YBTsL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great book, with a powerful message *by N***E on June 13, 2016* I am rewriting this review to reflect book changes.

I’m really glad I got my granddaughter this book. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ " is empowering and easy for kids to remember *by M***Y on December 26, 2015* Teaching body safety is very important to us, and this book is very developmentally appropriate for our 3.5 year old. The concepts are very clear and relevant and "no means no!" is empowering and easy for kids to remember. My daughter recently told me that she didn't want to wash her hair in the bath and when I insisted, she told me that she is the boss of her body and no means no. A proud moment for me and I couldn't argue!
