Sex Education

A story about "your body belongs to you" and a child's right to say no. It is designed to help children learn about body boundaries and learn to express themselves when they don't like something, even if that something is as benign as the tickles of a trusted adult. Uncle Willy is Kyle's favorite relative, but sometimes Uncle Willy's tickles bother Kyle. In this charming story that features a nonthreatening, much-loved adult and avoids controversial sexual issues, Kyle must find a way to understand his right to his own physical boundaries, and how to set those boundaries. This book is an excellent general education for all children aged 3-8, that is not related to sexual abuse and trauma. The new second edition includes a "Note to Parents" section written by clinical child psychologist who discusses the issue and suggests ways that parents can help their children establish and maintain healthy physical boundaries.
