Uses a fun, engaging story to explore the potentially difficult topic of kids' personal safety. On his 6th birthday, Miles' excitement is dimmed when he finds himself being pinched, noogied, hugged too tight, picked up and tickled by his well-intentioned family and decides he's had enough! When Miles decrees that he is the 'boss of his body,' his whole family expresses support and respect for his personal boundaries. In a colorful, comic-book style, young kids will laugh while learning this potentially life-saving concept that can benefit them for years to come
