Description

We are not born hating our bodies. Make sure your kids never do.

No parent wants their child to grow up with anything less than wholehearted confidence in themselves. Sadly research shows that children as young as five are saying they need to 'go on a diet' and over half of 11 to 16-year-olds regularly worry about the way they look. Campaigner and mum-of-two-girls Molly Forbes is here to help.

In Body Happy Kids, Molly draws on her own experience and a range of experts to provide parents with a much-needed antidote to the confusing health advice that bombards us every day. This reassuring and practical guide covers everything you need to help your child to care for their body with kindness, including how to approach good nutrition (without falling for diet culture), how to see the reality behind beauty ideals and how social media can be used to support body confidence rather than destroy it. With Molly's help, you can arm yourself with the insight and tools to raise resilient children who love the skin they're in.
About Molly Forbes

As the founder of social enterprise the Body Happy Organisation CIC, Molly runs workshops for teachers and youth leaders on the subject of body image, providing resources to help parents, teachers and carers to promote positive body image for children. Molly regularly appears at events and in the media talking about children's body image and mental health. She has spoken on various media outlets including ITV's This Morning, BBC Breakfast, Sky Sunrise, Sky News, Radio 1 Newsbeat, Heart Breakfast and C4's Steph's Packed Lunch. Molly lives in Devon with her children and husband. Mollie Cronin is a Canadian cartoonist, illustrator, and educator, from Halifax, Nova Scotia. This is her second time illustrating a book in the UK and she is perplexed and thrilled that folks across the pond are so keen to work with her. Often writing under the name Art Brat Comics, Mollie is best known for her fat positive illustrations and cheeky comics that poke holes in the logic of diet culture. She received a BA in Art History from NSCAD University before accidentally becoming a cartoonist in 2015. She is currently working on her master’s degree in Gender Studies and living in Kingston, Ontario, and is missing the ocean very much.
