Review:
"The book's guiding intention is wonderful, and the message that sometimes marriages don't work out--despite how much parents love each other and their children--is definitely needed."
--Kirkus Reviews
"I love this book! I just wish it was around when I got divorced and my son was three and a half. I would have bought it."
--Kathi Lowe, WriteStuff Creative

educators to help bridge that comprehension gap."
