Starishevsky, Jill.My Body Belongs to Me. Free Spirit Publishing, 2014.
Speaking to children on their own terms, this critically acclaimed book sensitively establishes boundaries for youngsters.

Telling the story of a gender-neutral child who is inappropriately touched by an uncle’s friend, this tale delivers a powerful moral when the youngster reveals the offender and the parents praise the child’s bravery.
