Summary

A parent moving out can be an incredibly confusing and emotionally taxing experience for a child, especially when they might not fully understand why. In this volume, readers are gently introduced to what happens when parents separate. This beautifully constructed volume, featuring full-color photographs and illustrations, helps young readers process their feelings about a change that is often painful. It emphasizes that while transitions can be challenging, young people can find support to cope with them. Filled with helpful coping strategies and a glossary to explain complex concepts, this volume enhances social and emotional learning lessons.
