Customer Reviews:

Excellent - would highly recommend

I have used this book with my 4 year old foster child and it has had quite an impact on him! A simply worded book which he understands and responds to. He has even been heard to tell his little brother 'words are not for hurting' His teacher has also bought a copy for her reception class after she saw mine - the word is spreading!

Great fun and very helpful too

This is a nicely illustrated book to help children to understand that words easily can, and often do, hurt. Words are powerful, and if said without thought, can have long-lasting ill effects. It would be good for some parents to realise this too!

Written for the 4-7 age-group whose vocabulary is growing daily, this book suggests a good way to help children think before they speak, and to choose what to say, and how to say it. It will also help children to identify their own feelings when on the receiving end of a hurtful word, and what to do about it. And how to say 'no'!
A bonus for parents too: suggestions for activities and discussions.
