Does your child know their body belongs to them?
Max loves running, building things, and staying up way past bedtime. And Max loves his body - every single part of it.
In this warm, joyful picture book, Max learns that his body belongs to him - and only him. With the help of his dad, Max discovers what makes a touch safe, what to do when something feels wrong, and why it is always okay to tell a trusted grown-up. When something happens that does not feel right, Max uses his voice - and learns that speaking up is one of the bravest things he can do.
Max's Magnificent Body Map opens gentle, age-appropriate conversations about body safety, consent and trusted adults - without fear, shame or over-complication. Because every child deserves the language to protect themselves, long before they need it.
This book covers:
- Body autonomy - your body belongs to you
- Private parts and what makes them private
- Safe touch versus unsafe touch
- Consent - asking before touching someone else
- Saying no to unwanted contact - and knowing that is always allowed
- Trusted adults and why it is always safe to tell
Perfect for:
- Children aged 3-6 reading with a parent or carer
- Starting body safety conversations at home before they become urgent
- Nursery, Reception and early primary school settings
- Families wanting to introduce correct anatomical language naturally and without shame
- Gifting to a family with young children - a book that does real, lasting good
A full Parent and Carer Guide is included at the back of the book, with talking points for every key page, guidance on reinforcing the messages at home, and signposting to further support.
Also in The Big Stuff series: Mia's Magnificent Body Map - because body safety education matters for every child.
The best time to start this conversation is now.
All titles published by Bare & Brave Publishing - honest, empowering books for children and the adults who love them.
