Excellent Read For Children Dealing With Divorce

'My Mother Is Not Married To My Father' has been my favorite book since I was in third grade. It has proved to be an excellent reading choice whether a mid age elementary school student or a young adult. The main character in the book, Cynthia, has provided an atmosphere that is familiar. Her deals with her parents' divorce held the reader to find comfort in their own life obstacles. It is a great read for anyone seeking answers or just some comfort. It is the best book that I have found about divorce from a young person's perspective. It is almost a diary of feelings that most mixed families have to endure through that natural process of grieving the separation of parents.
