A Gentle Picture Book About Body Safety for Kids (Ages 3-7)
Join Mia as she discovers the difference between safe, loving touches and touches that make her feel uncomfortable. Through cozy everyday moments - hugs from Mom, high-fives at school, a scraped knee, and a sleepover that goes wrong - Mia learns to trust her feelings, use her voice, and tell a grown-up she trusts.
This gentle, reassuring picture book:
- Teaches body safety and consent in simple language for ages 3-7
- Offers clear, actionable steps: say "Stop," move away, and tell a trusted adult
- Provides examples of safe vs. not-safe touches and how to handle secrets that worry you
- Includes prompts and practice ideas for parents, teachers, and caregivers to role-play and reinforce learning
Perfect for family reading, preschool classrooms, and pediatric waiting rooms, Mia's Story empowers children to protect their bodies while giving grown-ups tools to listen and respond with care.
What parents and caregivers will appreciate:
- Calm, age-appropriate approach to a sensitive topic
- Practical guidance for conversations and responses to disclosures
- Emphasis on reassurance: it's never the child's fault, and telling is brave
Help your child learn to keep their body safe - one story, one brave step at a time.
