Description
From My Head to My Toes, I Say What Goes! is a light-hearted exploration of boundaries, nestled in a fun and lively story.
I might say YES to pillow fights;
a kiss when I’m tucked in at night.
I might say NO to climbing high,
a tickling game or a hug goodbye.
The book discusses consent and control for a young audience, through a story that is bold and beautiful, loud and proud.
With the feel-good factor turned up to eleven, it also celebrates individualism, inclusivity and empathy.
Consent for children is a growing trend among parents and educators.
- Serious topic nestled in a fun and lively story.
- Also celebrates individualism, inclusivity and empathy.
- Author has previously published All Bodies Are Good Bodies.
- The story falls under two Bright Light pillars: bodies and gender.
