Riassunto:

God Made All of Me is a thoughtful, gospel-centered resource that helps parents teach young children about their bodies with clarity, dignity, and safety.

Written by Justin and Lindsey Holcomb, this beautifully illustrated book provides a gentle and age-appropriate way to introduce children ages two to eight to the truth that their bodies are created by God and are good. Through simple language and relatable storytelling, it equips families to talk openly about private parts, personal boundaries, and respect―without shame or fear―laying a healthy foundation for understanding.

More than just a conversation starter, this book empowers parents to proactively protect their children by teaching them how to recognize appropriate and inappropriate touch. Rooted in the doctrine of creation and informed by the authors’ experience counseling abuse victims, it helps families build trust, encourage openness, and prepare children to navigate future challenges with confidence and wisdom.
