1 Keeping children safe & strong
This is a great book to use with children to teach them that it is OK to tell someone, even an adult, what you like/dislike and how you feel. Too many times, children are taught that they should not talk back to adults, that adults know best. Yet, in this story, Sara's mother encourages her to tell Jack, an adult Sara likes to joke with, how she really feels and that it is OK to define her personal space. The book encourages children to think about what makes them feel comfortable/uncomfortable and how to put those feelings into words that convey those feelings to others. In a time of increasing violence against children, this book can help children learn to stand up for themselves in positive, assertive ways.
