Divorce doesn't have to define you--a reassuring illustrated guide for children navigating their parents' separation.
Children of separating or divorcing parents often feel alone and alienated, as though no one understands what they're going through. They need reassurance that their feelings are normal, and age-appropriate answers to their many questions. But divorce is confusing and overwhelming--thinking and talking about it are hard, for kids and grown-ups alike.
