STORY

This story is about saying no.

We tend to say yes because we are taught that saying yes is nice; as a good host, a good friend, a good child or just a good human being.
BUT sometimes it is better to learn to say NO.
If we say yes when we don´t want to, we are instead saying no to ourselves.
That is so much worse than saying no to others and yes to oneself.

”Super good theme that we need to recognise.”

/Marianne NilssonGender equality strategist, region Värmland, Sweden

”Important message to adults who need to understand a silent no.”

/Gunnel Wärngren – teacher in elementary school

’Beautiful and important book where she finally has the courage to say no.”

/Cia Hagman – special teacher in the special primary school
