Piemeltje

Kids quickly pick up on the idea that some parts of their body are best left unmentioned. Adults’ awkward reactions often leave them without the words—or the confidence—to speak up when it matters most, like during medical issues or when addressing inappropriate behavior.

That’s where a playful tale like Patrick De Win’s story about the adventures of a curious little penis can make a difference. It provides a lighthearted, non-taboo way to foster communication, without even a hint of anything inappropriate.

Of course, finding a publisher brave enough to take on such a story in today’s overly cautious world is no small feat. But if you’ve got the guts (or the “balls”), we’d love to hear from you!
