Helpful and Practical

This is a practical and helpful book. It helps you to get the kids started by talking about the basic facts of their parents' divorce, and, as the weeks pass, draws them into a deeper expression of their feelings and understanding of their family situation. It makes it easy!Dave Moorman, School Social Worker, Downers Grove, Illinois
