  • Good book

    This is a pretty good book but I wish there was more - books for divorced parents for children that are a little bit more positive because the outcome it just seems so sad and it really does not have to be as long as you stay positive and happy for your child but this book is a good way to show your children the emotions they are feeling or completely normal and they are not being left out great price great quality thank you

  • Great Book for kids about divorce

    This is a classic book about divorce that sadly, is out of print. I use it in my therapy practice and know that other therapists use it as well.
