The Let’s Talk About It (LTAI) books series address important but challenging topics for children and adults in an effort to end child abuse. These books will equip children with tools necessary to protect themselves from physical, mental, psychological and sexual abuse. Intended to open the lines of communication between adults and children; LTAI books will lead to empowering conversations on taboo’ topics that will decrease abuse against children. The initial six part series; which will include three books about girls and three books about boys, focuses on the prevention of sexual violence against children. In the first book, My Body is Special,” Eva empowers other children to take ownership of their bodies and provides them with problem solving tools to help prevent an unhealthy touch. Eva teaches children what to say, what to do, where to go and who to tell if they ever feel unsafe around another person. The goal of the book is for each child who encounters this book to develop their own individual personal plan of action to prevent this type of abuse.
