Private parts are the places a bathing suit hides, and they belong to nobody but you. From that simple starting point, this book builds a child's whole protective toolkit: hugs happen only when you want them, the Body Rules apply to family, neighbours, teachers and big kids alike, and safe grown-ups never ask a child to break a rule or hide anything. Children learn the difference between a happy surprise and a secret that must never be kept, spot the two classic grooming red flags (a gift plus a secret, and secret alone-time), and practise listening to their body's built-in alarm. The book closes with the Safety Hand: five grown-ups a child can always tell, one for every finger. The parent guide lists warning signs and how to respond without alarming the child.
