Summary:"On his 6th birthday, Miles's excitement is dimmed when he finds himself being repeatedly pinched, noogied, hugged too tight, picked up, and tickled by his well-intentioned family -- and decides he's had enough! Struggling to find the words to express his frustration, Miles finally decides that he is the "boss of his body" and hopes his family will understand. Much to his surprise, Miles's whole family shows him full support and respect for voicing his personal boundaries. In a colorful, comic-book style, this important tale will have young kids laughing and learning alongside Miles while they absorb the potentially lifesaving concept that can benefit them for years to come... It's an empowering way to protect our kids from any kind of unsafe or uncomfortable touch."--Back cover.
