Some of your words are kind. But some of them are not. Words are not for hurting. What do hurtful words do?”
Children are known for speaking their minds. We can’t expect them to watch every word, but we can help them to understand that their words affect other people. We can gently guide them to choose words that are helpful instead of hurtful, and to say two very important words—“I’m sorry”—when hurtful words come out before they can stop them.
Like Free Spirit's earlier board books Hands Are Not for Hitting and Teeth Are Not for Biting, Words Are Not for Hurting helps little ones learn big ideas: that they are responsible for what they do and say; that their actions and words affect others; and that they can make positive choices. Simple words and delightful full-color illustrations make it perfect for reading aloud one-on-one or in small groups. The book also includes helpful tips for parents and caregivers.

Title: Great Board Books for the Youngest Crowd - Clear Messages
Review: This series is great for younger kids or kids that may need some reminders about basic conduct/manners/hygiene. The message is clear and direct, the colors are great, and the words are repetitive enough that they make for wonderful early readers as well. Our autistic son needs these reminders to help him navigate life in public school and he loves these books. These are board books, so they hold up well to the love they will surely receive. This one is a great reminder to the kiddos who forget to think before they speak.

Title: awesome series
Review: We LOVE this entire series. I made the mistake of ordering the board book instead of the other version- I assumed they were the same. My youngest is a book ripper due to OT. That's my only complaint- I couldn't find anywhere that labeled the differences when I looked and when I flipped through the peek inside they looked the same. Since ordering the board book, someone told me they are different. So a heads up for anyone trying to decide. I guess the other elaborates a bit more and uses some different words.

Review: I bought this book for my 4yo son. He really enjoyed the book because it was easy to understand each page due to big pictures, so he felt like he could read it himself. We often referred to the title of the book to reinforce making good choices and he kept the book at daycare to look at if he needed a reminder. The book really helped give us another tool to turn his behavior around! Plus, I plan to use it in my practice as a therapist when working with children with similar issues.
