Description - My Body! What I Say Goes! Kiah's Edition: Teach children about body safety, safe and unsafe touch, private parts, consent, respect, secrets and surprises by Jayneen Sanders

KIAH'S EDITION is the Indigenous version of the best selling title 'My Body! What I Say Goes!'. This book will help children to protect their bodies from inappropriate touch through age-appropriate body safety skills. Illustrated by awarding-winning Indigenous artist Jasmine Seymour and piloted with First Nations students, children will be empowered to say in a strong and clear voice, "This is my body! What I say goes!" Through culturally-appropriate illustrations and engaging text, this book (written by the author of 'Let's Talk About Body Boundaries, Consent & Respect', 'No Means No!' and 'Some Secrets Should Never Be Kept') will teach children the following crucial and empowering skills in personal body safety: - identifying safe and unsafe feelings - recognizing early warning signs - developing a safety network - using the correct names for private parts - understanding the difference safe and unsafe touch - understanding the difference between secrets and surprises - respecting body boundaries. Approximately 20% of girls, and 8% of boys will experience sexual abuse before their 18th birthday (Pereda, et al, 2009). Parents, caregivers, and educators have a duty of care to protect children by teaching them body safety skills. These skills empower children, and go a long way in keeping them safe from abuse - ensuring they grow up as assertive and confident teenagers and adults. Also included in this book are in-depth Discussion Questions to further enhance the learning and to initiate important family conversations around body autonomy.
