Best children’s books about sexting
Here, you’ll find books that will help you to talk to your child about sexting, i.e. messages or pictures that have sexual content like a nude picture, sexy words or a video.
Sexting is a conversation you’ll need to consider having, especially if your child has their own phone or email account or has signed up for any social media accounts or games where people can send them private messages.
You can find some age-appropriate information for kids about sexting from Kids Helpline. And if you don’t know what to do if your child has already received some messages, read this article about what to do when you receive a sext.
If you’re uncertain about how to talk to your child about these types of images, then this blog post, How to talk to teens about sexting, can help you with getting started.
Find practical tools to educate kids about porn & internet safety in the Sex Ed Shop
The easiest way to start this awkward conversation is with age-appropriate children’s books. Surprisingly enough, I was able to find a few books that do talk about sexting. However, I did manage to find one book for tweens that is only about sexting. So many of the books in this list are internet safety books that also talk about sexting.
Books about internet safety, social media safety, media literacy and pornography are in separate book lists.
New books for children about sexting are occasionally being published, so please contact me if you know of a book that should be included in this list.
You can find more children’s books to keep kids safe on the internet + prevent porn exposure, in the main list.

NOTE: Before passing any book to your child or reading it with them, you should read it yourself first. I might think it is a great book for a certain age child or that the information is valuable, but you may disagree. Try to choose books that reflect your values and the messages you want your child to receive.
