This book is all about asking for, giving and not giving permission, which is usually called consent. Using child-friendly explanations and colourful illustrations by Sarah Jennings, this book helps you to teach children that it's OK to say 'no' when they feel uncomfortable, and that they should respect when others say 'no' to them too.
The topics that feel difficult to discuss with your children are probably the ones you most need to talk to them about. From personal space to sharing, and from privacy to asking for help, It's OK to Say No explains why learning to respect yourself and others is so important. Featuring extra notes for grown-ups on tackling these sensitive topics with little ones, this reassuring picture book is the perfect resource to read with children aged 4+ and start important conversations about respect and consent.
Reading age: 5 years or older
Ideal For: Perfect for 5-7 year olds learning body autonomy, and consent explained in child-clear terms.
Details: Hardcover | 32 pages | 25.6 × 25.6 × 1.0 cm
