Customer Rating: 

I purchased this book for my 2 year old son after reading a disturbing article. I did not think my son caught on till my Mother-in-Law told me he was talking about his privates while taking a bath. Not sure how much the book would help, but I am glad I gave it a try.

I got this book to inform and educate my children about the possibility that not everyone is nice. The book has great pictures by a 4yr old and is repetitive in what it says---It is NOT OK for someone to touch you. I like this book and feel that it is well written and one of the better ones for this message.

I just purchased this book for my five and three year old granddaughters.
I was very pleased with it and my granddaughters related to it strongly. At the bottom of each page it repeats "Those are MY private parts." As I read the book to them, they would repeat that phrase with vigor. It is simple and to the point in rhythmic rhymes with a message that noone is allowed to play games with you that involve your private parts. It also talks about the different people in a child's life and how none of them are allowed to touch their private parts. As sad as it is to acknowledge, most perpetrators of sexual molestration are someone the child knows and loves. This book reaches out to the child and lets them know that no matter who it is that does this kind of behavior, it is still not okay and not to be accepted. It shows them that they can speak out and tell someone they trust, so they can be protected. The book was excellent, and was perfect for the ages of my grandchildren. The issustrations drawn by a four year old had an powerful effect on them also. I would highly recommend it as a tool to help educate and protect and empower children. Being an abuse survivor myself, it is obvious to me that this book is a valuable source for children and adults to end the cycle of abuse.

The book was simple to follow, easy for the younger kids. But, it was a simple little, practically should be free, book. It was more like the type that should be given out at pre-school. The concept is great but they prey on our fears.

As the non-offending parent of a three-year-old who was molested by her biological father, I have tried to find the best materials for my daughter and myself. This book is written in rhyme which children love. It is FUN to the child, but also makes them think. Although I believe it is intended for children who have not been abused, it actually resulted in my daughter "talking" about what her daddy did to her. That is a good thing when you know you are not supposed to ASK the child, or lead them, but yet you are instructed by the "professionals" to seek counseling and to TEACH THEM ABOUT GOOD AND BAD TOUCHES. I HIGHLY recommend this book and truly believe it should be required in daycares and early school years.
