Summary: Divorce as Loss - a Helpful Book
Comment: This is a realistic book for children going through change and loss - this time the divorce of their parents. With no story line but grouped into subjects, readers can utilize as much or as little as needed each time the book is explored. Having personally experienced a divorce with children involved, I like how all aspects of divorce (why divorce, two homes, telling friends, stepparents) are part of the scope.
I strongly encourage exploration of the pages related to feelings and learning to express in healthy ways the wide range of emotions a child experiences. Opening up about/discussing one's feelings is so important for a child's development into an emotionally healthy adult.

Summary: Divorce with children
Comment: I found a chile therapist who recommended this book to me. It was a good book, but my children were not interested in it. They would rather talk to me and as me questions, so that what we did. I read it, and it was helpful in terms of coming up with helpful language to talk to the kids about something difficult.

Summary: What a great book
Comment: I am a nanny working for divorced family. I found the 8-year old reading the book, I was interested so I read the whole book and I was so impressed I got it for my kids too. Not that I am planing on divorce but the kids have so many friends coming from divorced families and this could help them understand situation they are going through. I think the book explains very sensitively whole process of divorce and life after divorce, new partners of parents and step-siblings included. I find the book very needed and helpful. There's plenty of literature for parents going through this hard part of their life and now this is finally something for the little ones. They deserved it.
