The Igbo edition of Don't Touch Me There carries the same message of empowerment found in the original English and Spanish versions. The book encourages children to embrace their right to control their own bodies and asserts that their personal safety matters. The story follows a group of children in a classroom setting as they learn about their "safe space" or "personal bubble." As the narrative unfolds, the children are taught how to recognize uncomfortable situations and understand that it is always okay to speak up to a trusted adult when something doesn't feel right.

This new version of the book specifically caters to the Igbo community—one of the largest ethnic groups in Africa—primarily based in southeastern Nigeria, with a significant diaspora in countries like Cameroon and beyond. Chioma Chime, who hails from this community, understands the importance of preserving culture while educating the next generation about personal safety. In her words: "By offering this book in Igbo, we are empowering the children of this culture to confidently assert their boundaries, while also reinforcing the essential role of trusted adults in their lives."
