Until he finds someone to share his secret with.

About the Authors

Vice detectives Pieter and Wouter are with the police tasked with investigating possible criminal offenses related to sexuality. They are truth-finders and remain neutral in this.

They are also specialized in interviewing young children and people with intellectual disabilities or cognitive impairments.

Based on their experiences and many conversations with young children, they created this book, which does not focus on a specific not-fun secret but is applicable to any secret.

With this book, they want to help children realize that they can tell a not-fun secret to someone they trust and that hiding it is not a solution, whether it's about bullying, stealing, abuse, or violence. Besides that, it is also just an incredibly fun and accessible book. But with an important message and it offers an opening for a valuable conversation! #daretosee

The book is intended for primary school-aged children, their parents/caregivers, and all professionals who work with children.
