Book Reviews of Some Parts are Not for Sharing
Book Review: A Comfortable Introduction
Summary: 5 Stars
This small, friendly book is a perfect way to introduce the idea of "private parts" and inappropriate touch. I started reading it to my son before his second birthday. It's on the bookshelf with his other books, and we read it once a week or so. He likes the illustrations and especially likes to point out the baby fish and either the mommy fish or daddy fish. The book has helped me talk about this subject in a casual, comfortable way--not like I'm having some important conversation with my 2-year-old but just reinforcing the ideas with a sentence or two during bath time, etc. It lays the groundwork for more conversations to come.
For those who haven't seen the book and are wondering how the ideas are presented, there is nothing anatomical or menacing about the text or illustrations (they're fish!). The message is simple: some parts are meant to be private (the areas covered by a bathing suit), and if someone tries to touch you there you should tell a trusted adult. It really is appropriate for toddlers and up.
Also, the author came to speak to our Mothers & More chapter and stressed the importance of introducing this idea at a very young age. As a school counselor, Julie sees the effects of sexual abuse and knows that without this kind of coaching at a young age, many victims will not tell an adult that something has happened. Thank you, Julie, for giving all of us a tool to start this process of protecting our children.
