From My Head To My Toes I Say What Goes

From My Head to My Toes, I Say What Goes! by Charlotte Barkla and Jacqui Lee is a bright, reassuring picture book that helps young children understand boundaries and body safety in everyday moments. With playful rhymes and clear examples, it shows kids they can choose what feels okay for them—whether that’s a pillow fight, a bedtime kiss, or saying no to tickling, hugs, or risky games.

Rather than preaching, the story keeps things child-friendly and empowering, building a simple, practical understanding of consent: my body, my say. Along the way it gently reinforces empathy and respect for other people’s choices, making it a strong fit for family reading and early childhood settings.

Perfect for preschool and early primary readers, and for parents, carers and educators looking for books about consent, personal boundaries and social-emotional learning.

Add it to your bookshelf for a warm, confident read that opens up important conversations.
