What This Book Is About

There are a lot of fun secrets, like those surprise artworks kids make for their parents. But there are also secrets that are not good to keep and could be harming them. This book helps kids know the difference between the two.

A book that parents can read aloud to their kids, it encourages young readers to be more open to their parents about things that are important. The books covers topics like:

  • Which secrets should be shared to parents and trusted adults
  • Exploring feelings, concerns and anxieties kids might be experiencing
  • Speaking out about things that could be troubling kids

Reflection and Comments

Talking to kids about secrets that are not supposed to be kept is a basic protective behaviour. By talking to them about things that make them feel uncomfortable they could find red flags together and talk about ways to avoid being groomed for abuse.
