Price: £14.99
We often think about consent in a sexual context, but it actually lies at the heart of our daily life – in interactions with family and friends, and in the respect and empathy we show ourselves and others!
From the bestselling author of The Every Body Book, this lovingly illustrated guide introduces consent in all its many forms – in a way that is inclusive of orientation, neurodiversity, gender identity, faith and ethnicity. Delving into issues of body safety, verbal and nonverbal cues, boundaries, puberty and privacy, the correct terminology for body parts, developing a safe adult support system, and recognizing gut feelings – this will help children build confidence and shame-free knowledge. It will also offer ideas around consent nuances, like power dynamics, intellectual disabilities, pornography, sexism, and transphobia.
With a glossary and further discussion questions – this is the perfect book for young people and their families to explore together.

As both a parent and a therapist, I love this book! I think it will be a valuable resource for families and professionals to help open communication with children and young teens about these important and often unaddressed topics.
'An invaluable resource. Really useful for understanding personal space and consent'.
Inclusive, up-to-date and relevant. The language about sex is entirely appropriate and to-the-point.
In the digital age and as we transition back into in-person classrooms, consent has never been a more important topic for kids. Intersectional, and well-researched, The Every Body Book of Consent by Rachel E. Simon is a perfect book for any adult, whether that be parents, educators, or counselors, searching for an age-appropriate way to approach this tough subject with kids.
Both families and independent readers will appreciate this diverse, inclusive, no-nonsense guide.
