Summary: Mommy, I remembered that book
Review: Teach your children well. This book saved my eight-year old daughter from further assault.A couple years years ago I bought this book for a friend and just decided to by one for our family. My daughter was six at the time. Recently we moved and the company-hired workers arrived. That afternoon as I was watching my children play together, I thought how cute they are - precious six-year old brother and eight-year old daughter side-by-side. I ran upstairs to the kitchen although the door was open between us and 6 other people were within earshot including their father and and an on-site manager. My daughter came upstairs and told me that a worker put his hands in her pants. He began to lead her to a closed area. She lied to him; got away from him; and came to me. "Mommy, I remembered what that book, "My Body Is Private" said. I remembered that you told me anything inside my underwear is private. Teach your chldren well. Buying this non-threatening book with a happy ending saved my daughter from ... who knows. THANK YOU Linda Walvoord Girard. Although my daughter was tricked and hurt within seconds in her own home, you have saved a child. Just as you teach a child to walk safely across the street without instilling fear of streets or cars, you can keep your child safe without instilling fear. My daughter was never afraid until she needed to be -- AND SHE ACTED. No secrets, no further abuse, no threats........ she saved herself through the knowledge she gathered through our reading this book together. I am forever grateful to the author.

Summary: This book should be read to every child.
Review: This is a wonderful book designed to help prevent child molestation. The author explains the topic of bodily privacy in a clear, yet thorough manner. The story is told from the point of view of an adolescent girl who describes appropriate boundaries for physical contact. This book is written in such a natural and easy style that it precludes any discomfort a parent might feel in raising this topic with his/her child. This book is also well-suited to a wide age range and is an excellent starting point for more discussion. As a parent, I intend to read it periodically to my children -- making sure to introduce it again and again as they progress through the developmental stages
