Product Description What kinds of secrets do you keep? What kinds of secrets need to be told? The key is how you feel: if you feel happy and excited, it's probably a secret to keep. But if you feel hurt or confused, you need to tell a grown-up you trust. That's the message in this book, which uses familiar examples of many different secrets. An excellent tool for teaching children to think for themselves in confusing situations. Recommended by members of Parents Anonymous. Available in Spanish; see page 60.
