My Little World: My Body (Board Book)

My Little World: My Body (Board Book)

A thoughtfully illustrated board book that introduces young children to their bodies using inclusive imagery, everyday language, and familiar experiences. The book represents a wide range of bodies and abilities, helping children see themselves and others reflected in a natural, matter-of-fact way. Through simple repetition and clear visuals, children are supported in building body awareness, early vocabulary, and confidence while engaging in shared reading.

Helpful when:

You want to support body awareness, inclusive thinking, and early language through calm, everyday reading moments.

How to use at home
  • Read slowly and follow your child’s interest on each page.
    Name body parts and encourage pointing, copying, or touching their own body where appropriate.
    Use the images as a gentle way to talk about differences and similarities between people.
Why this is Roost approved

Inclusive body representation supports early emotional development by helping children recognise that all bodies are different and all bodies are valued. Naming body parts through repetition builds foundational language skills, while inclusive visuals support empathy, self-acceptance, and understanding from an early age.
