That Weird Feeling
Picture-Books
Before the bad can happen
Dad’s buddy Robert is great at reading aloud. But when he touches you while you are on his lap, you get a weird feeling. You also get it when your Aunt Tina kisses you for a little too long. What kind of feeling is that? This picture book is about crossing physical or emotional boundaries. The particular voice of this book is the weird feeling actually being able to speak directly to its child, thereby introducing itself as a watchful companion, not always pleasant but important. Vital even. Also, in this book there is a sort of “emergency call centre” in the shape of the yellow page, showing sentences that are easy to remember when the weird feeling alarm goes off.
- This book encourages all children to say ‘no’ early on and to get help
- Developed with advice from a specialist center for the prevention of sexual violence
- Strong pictures, sensitive text
- For all employees of daycare centers and elementary schools
