Boundaries Please: A Picture Book About Body Boundaries, Friendship Boundaries, Stranger Danger and Being Safe Online for Kids (Picture Books for Kids)

As your child grows, you can't be there every time there's danger. They need the skills to navigate life and stay safe on their own.

Boundaries Please is how you prepare them for the dangers of the world. One story covering body boundaries, consent, friendship boundaries, online safety, and stranger danger, because to a child these aren't separate lessons. They connect into one safety bubble.

What your child learns to do:

Know what's okay and what isn't Notice when something feels wrong Say stop and set a clear boundary Recognise good touch and bad touch Walk away from danger and find a trusted adult Handle scary or unkind messages online Speak up and tell someone they trust Stand up for friends who need help too
The story builds real confidence
The boy faces situations that don't feel right, at the playground, online, and out in the world. Each time, he learns to recognise it, set a boundary, and tell a trusted adult. By the end he's not just protecting himself, he's teaching another child to do the same.

Serious topics, never frightening
Written in gentle rhyme, so it introduces difficult subjects calmly. Children come away feeling capable, not anxious.

Hand-drawn illustrations
Every picture is drawn by hand, with expressive faces that help children read each situation and feeling.
