Helping kids set healthy boundaries for their private parts can be a daunting and awkward task for parents, counselors and educators. Written from a kid's point of view, I Said No! makes this task a lot easier. To help Zack cope with a real-life experience he had with a friend, he and his mom wrote a book to help prepare other kids to deal with a range of problematic situations. I Said No! uses kid-friendly language and illustrations to help parents and concerned adults give kids guidance they can understand, practice and use. Using a simple, direct, decidedly non-icky approach that doesn't dumb down the issues involved, as well as an easy-to-use system to help kids rehearse and remember appropriate responses to help keep them safe, I Said No! covers a variety of topics, including: What's appropriate and with whom. How to deal with inappropriate behavior, bribes and threats. When and where to go for help, and what to do if the people you're turning to for help don't listen. Dealing with feelings of guilt and shame. I Said No! is a Mom's Choice Awards® Gold Recipient

Good Book

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on April 18, 2023

Verified Purchase

This is a good book that I should have picked up 2 years ago. My daughter found it very easy to understand and the way it was written made it comfortable to talk about. With everything going on today, I think this is a book worth buying, reading, and discussing with your children from an early age. Children need to know how to recognize when a situation is wrong and going wrong very quickly so they can react quickly and swiftly.

The BEST I've Read Yet!

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on August 15, 2010

Verified Purchase

I purchased 3 books on this subject that were highly recommended by the people that purchased them. Although all the books were great, this book stood out far from the rest. I have 4 kids that range from age 7 to 14. I was reading this book for the first time to my 2 youngest (7 & 10) when the 2 older kids (12 & 14) came into the room as I continued to read. The 2 older kids were actively participating in discussing the contents of the book just as much as the younger ones. We ended up reading it through a second time with all the kids & discussing what they learned. What I'm trying to say is even though at first this book seemed like it was going to pertain to much younger children, it actually didn't. The author made it understandable for the younger ones, but also covered situations the older ones had never thought of. The author also left several areas "open for parental discussion" at the end of sections where parents can elaborate more if they feel they needed to. For ex: some families use the words "private parts", "bathing suit area" or "boy parts & girl parts" instead of the proper names. Instead of explaining these proper names, the author writes something like "..your private parts are the areas of your body that are covered by your bathing suit. These "private areas" have names that you can discuss with your parent. You may want to discuss this right now.." So the author covers all the bases for those parents who would rather use their own "pet names" for genitals without offending anybody (as ALWAYS, there will be people offended by using "penis and vagina" with their children, as well as the reverse using "pee-pee" instead of the correct names for genitals). This was very SMART on the author's part. She left these areas open for further discussion if it was a more sensitive topic. She also explained about "red flags" in how people act and what they say, and how to spot a "red flag". She also explained the importance of TELLING no matter what. One of the most important topics she discussed (that many books overlook or don't emphasize ENOUGH) is that the people that can do these things can be someone you love a lot like a close relative, neighbor, friend, friend's parent or relative, etc. Someone doesn't have to look or be mean or be a STRANGER. As a matter of fact, I don't think the word Stranger was used, which is also SMART because that paints a bad picture to children that only bad-looking people or people they don't know will do these things. I know this is probably wordy & overwritten, but I've read LOTS of books and this is the ONLY ONE that had everything all laid out the way it should be.

Happy Mommy

easy read and yet comprehensive in content

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on March 28, 2012

Verified Purchase

This book is great for kids who are 4 or older. It covers the many different types of people they could encounter and the types of tactics they might use without making it scary or uncomfortable. The scenarios used aren't so specific that they're scary and aren't so general that your child wouldn't be able to recognize danger and know how to respond. I bought 3 books on this subject, one was too specific (called "The right touch") giving scary details that made me uncomfortable while reading by myself (I'm still trying to decide whether to donate it or trash it), the other was too general ("No Trespassing-This is my body"), but was a good introduction to the topic and very good for a younger child who would not be able to sit through "I said No" because it is longer and more in depth.

This book would be absolutely perfect if it weren't so wordy. The content is great but just over-worded and I find myself editing as I go along to make things more concise. In nearly every scenario it says, "what should you think? what should you say? what should you do?" It's fine to read that once, but otherwise it just gets repetative. So I just shorten it to "what should you think? what should you say?" and then that way my son can have fun yelling the words that rhyme with the last question, "NO WAY!" So 5 stars for content, 4 stars for execution, but I have to say I feel pretty bad about giving it 4 stars since it was written by a child (which is really what makes it so relatable).

I don't mind that the book makes suggestions like, "Maybe you would like to talk about a safety plan now." But I wish these suggestions were italicized or something, so that it's easier to recognize the suggested conversations so that I can skip over those parts if we've already discussed it a zillion times or if I don't have time for an in-depth discussion that day.

But overall, this is a really great book and one that I highly recommend for anyone with a child 4 or older, maybe younger or older depending on maturity and ability to focus. My 5 year old loves it and he knows exactly what to do if something happens. Also, I read reviews about concerns with the statement, "The kids who tell are the smartest ones of all!" I think this book is very gentle and is very careful to consider that a child may already have had bad experiences. Afterall, it's written by a child who had a bad experience himself. It says, "Even if you feel funny about what happened. Even if you feel embarrassed by what happened. Remember it was not your fault, no way! You are just a kid." If you feel concerned that a child is holding a secret and is scared to tell and you don't want them to feel that they aren't being smart by telling what happened, then simply edit the reading and say, "Telling is the smartest thing you can do." So that it's more about making a smart choice rather than labeling a child as smart or dumb. Personally, I think whether you edit that statment or not, kids will be more likely to tell (not less likely) as a result of reading this book and learning that it's not their fault and there are other kids who have had these experiences.

A dip-into kind of book!

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on March 18, 2017

Verified Purchase

I was concerned by the 'green light' people concept. The statistics state that most abuse is done by an adult close to the child, so presumably a lot of these are people are being labelled as 'green light' people, which is kind of promising the child they won't hurt them. I read the reviews on here and was expecting something really child friendly. Perhaps my child is too young, and I haven't been in the 'parent game' long enough to know what I'll need to say to my child when the time comes, but I was quite shocked when reading through the different situations it runs through. It's like a long list of 'this bad thing might happen to you....so might this...and this' and it made me feel like I was going to expose my child to fears of things that she shouldn't spend time dwelling on. However, I can see why parents like to go through different scenarios to prepare a child, but perhaps this book is something to 'dip into' when a situation is about to occur that might pose a threat, rather than a book you'd read all in one go.

thought it was very long and a little scary for young ones. I ended up reading as notes whilst chatting with my son. It has some good ways or wording things in a conversation with him. I was hoping for something a little more gentle when approaching the subject but I have used it as notes on subject to approach

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on September 24, 2016

Its written in a way that's super child friendly. I had a little safety circle session with my niece and nephew, and this book was a hit. We gave the people in their lives red or green flags, talked about things that made us feel uncomfortable, and talked about what to do in certain situations. Your child is never too young for this book.
