Don't Tell: The Sexual Abuse of Boys, originally released in French as Ça arrive aussi aux garçons: l'abus sexuel au masculin, is a nonfiction book by Michel Dorais (FR). It was published in 1997 in French by VLB (FR). It was later republished by Typo éditeur. The English translation was published by McGill-Queen's University Press in 2002, and Isabel Denholm Meyer was the translator.

The book has testimonials from thirty sexual abuse victims from Canada.[1]

Manon Toupin of La Nouvelle Union stated the English version of the book was very successful in Canada and the United States.[2]

The translator of the English version had a son who was a sexual abuse victim while he was a child; the man committed suicide at age 29.[3]
