Short Summary
What This Book Is About
Aria has beautiful curly hair that’s naturally bouncy and soft. She loves it when her hair is just free to be the way it’s meant to be. But because her hair is so beautiful, so many people want to touch her hair. This makes her feel uncomfortable. This book is about consent.
An entertaining story best read together by kids and their parents or carers, this book shares a few valuable lessons like:
- It’s important to be you.
- It’s normal to feel uncomfortable when people try to touch you.
- People need to ask for permission before touching you.
- It’s okay to say no when you don’t like being touched.
Reflection and Comments
This book is a great tool in teaching kids about consent and its importance. Talking about something as simple as touching hair normalises conversations and can pave the way to deeper conversations, especially about consent and private parts.
