To be small in a big world, while so much is going on around you, it's nice to have the appropriate tools as we grow. When I was young, I was put in scenarios I didn't feel comfortable in with relatives and told "give them a hug before we go." It was the "right," thing to do. Our current day and age is teaching us differently. Children are allowed to say no and set boundaries with adults, or anyone.
This book is a compilation of kindness, sharing, stopping and looking both ways at stop signs, and situations that harness a strong-willed child. Situations that teach them empowerment and that their voice matters too. Teaching them to listen to their "gut," and to speak up for themselves. That is my hope from this book. That it will reach as many children as it's meant to and they feel the empowerment many of us hadn't for so long. I hope families have conversations because of this book and that change occurs to create a gentler and safer world for generations to come.
