Transcript of Tam's Tales Comic English
Primary
Hello, my name
is Tam.
This is my village.
Welcome to my home. I live
here with my Mum, Dad, sister
and brother.
1
Presented by
Mum, I love living here,
I know it’s small and we don’t
have much, but I know we are
all really happy.
Hi I’m Alak. I live
next door. Tam’s Mum
and Dad often invite me
over for dinner so I’m
not lonely.
Alak is
really friendly, but
sometimes I feel
embarrassed because he
gives me more attention
than everyone else.
Alak likes to be
alone with me. I don’t
like being alone with
Alak. I want to be
with my family.

Alak places his
hand on my leg. I just
wish he would leave
me alone...
You like it
when I come over
to see you, don’t
you Tam? Don’t tell
anyone...but you’re
my favorite.
Take this money
Tam. It’s just for you.
You are very special
to me.
I know this
money should make
me happy, but I feel
confused about why
he has given it to
me and not my Mum
and Dad.
Can you help Tam find these words
from the story in the wordsearch?
Can you draw a face to match
the word?
54
I want to tell Mum and Dad
but I’m too scared because he says
I shouldn’t tell anyone. He says it’s
a gift just for me. I feel strange
when Alak is near me.
Thanks for having
me over for dinner, it
was really lovely.
Come by anytime
Alak, you are so good
to my family.
Pass the ball!
Over here! It is always so
much fun playing
with you Tam.
Hi boys,
mind if
I play?

When
we’re alone, Alak
often touches me -
like today when he
stroked my arm
when there was
no need to.
He also touches
my bottom and
his hand stays
there for what
feels like a long
time. This feels
wrong...
Read the questions and choose
the correct answer.
How does Alak make Tam feel?
a. Happy.
b. Strange.
Why doesn’t he tell his Mum and Dad about it?
a. He likes the attention.
b. He is too scared.
When is Tam happy?
a. When he is with his family.
b. When Alak touches him.
What do you think Tam should have done
when Alak was touching him?
a. Tell someone he trusts.
b. Hope it stops.
1. Alak makes me feel uncomfortable
and strange. At first I didn’t know why,
but I’ve always been taught that it is
important to trust how you feel inside.
2. It’s not right
for grown-ups
to touch you in
your private
places or
anywhere that

strange or unhappy.

It is normal for adults
who you love to show
you that they love you,
to hug you and to
kiss you.
But these places
are private and no-one
should touch them if you
don’t want them to.
This can happen to
anyone, boys and girls. So
I’ve told my sister the same
things. Nobody should make
her feel uncomfortable and
touch her in these places
without her permission.
Don’t touch me Alak!
I don’t like it! You have
no right to touch me in
that way! I’m going to
tell my Mum!
1110
Tam,
you are very
brave for telling me.
Alak is a bad man for
making you feel bad
and touching you in
the way he has. I
promise you will not
have to see him
again.
Mum,
Alak makes me
feel unhappy and
he touches me in
places that are
private.
If anything like
this happens to you, it’s
not your fault. There are
things you can do.
Top Tip 1 Trust your
instincts Trust
how you feel
inside. If you feel
sad or uncomfortable
with things that
people ask you to
do, you need to
tell someone you
trust.
Top Tip 2
Tell an adult
you trust
This could be
your parents or other
people you trust like
community officials,
support workers or
other adults. They
can help you.
Touching me
in the places he did
was very bad and Alak
has been taken away by
the Police so we don’t
have to see him
anymore.
1312
Everything is fine for me now,
because I told someone when things
didn’t feel right.
I hope my story can
help you to be safe and
happy in the future too.
Bye.
If you are worried
about your safety, or the safety
of someone you know, there are other
people you can talk to too...

arrow to the image that matches the words in the box
He also touches my bottom
and his hand stays there for
what feels like a long time.
This feels wrong.
I love my family. We don’t
have much money or space
but we’re happy.
Next time Alak came to play,
I told him that I didn’t like
him touching me and I ran to
my Mum.
