A little girl explains her feelings, thoughts, and concerns about her two parents who don't live together anymore.

Kathy Stinson deals in a positive way with the confusion, insecurity and sorrow experienced by young children whose parents have separated. Each parent still provides the same love and caring--just not together anymore. "The story line is beautifully spare and the simple sentences and the perceptive, sensitive drawings mesh and enhance one another. The book has such an authentic look and sound that reading is like listening in on a privileged conversation." - Globe & Mail

Discusses divorce, its possible causes, effects, and solutions, from a Christian perspective.

A book about divorce told from a child's point of view.

Discusses some of the things that happen when parents divorce and describes ways of adjusting to the changes that divorce brings.

For young children who live in two homes, this bright, simple story with oversized flaps reassures young readers that there is love in each one. Her parents don't live together anymore, so sometimes the child in this book lives with her mom and cat, and sometimes with Dad. Her bedroom looks a little different in each house, and she keeps some toys in one place and some in another. But her favorite toys she takes with her wherever she goes. In an inviting lift-the-flap format saturated with colorful illustrations, Melanie Walsh visits the changes in routine that are familiar to many children whose parents live apart, but whose love and involvement remain as constant as ever.

Seventy now-adult children of divorce give their candid and often heart-wrenching answers to eight questions (arranged in eight chapters, by question), including: What were the main effects of your parents' divorce on your life? What do you say to those who claim that "children are resilient" and "children are happy when their parents are happy"? What would you like to tell your parents then and now? What do you want adults in our culture to know about divorce? What role has your faith played in your healing? Their simple and poignant responses are difficult to read and yet not without hope. Most of the contributors--women and men, young and old, single and married--have never spoken of the pain and consequences of their parents' divorce until now. They have often never been asked, and they believe that no one really wants to know. Despite vastly different circumstances and details, the similarities in their testimonies are striking; as the reader will discover, the death of a child's family impacts the human heart in universal ways.
