Understanding divorce—a healing drawing and activity book for kids 5 to 7

Unlike other divorce books for kids, My Family is Changing helps your child (age 5-7) process what's happening through sympathetic stories that feature a diverse collection of children. Each story also serves as a starting point for a host of activities and drawing pages that provide a safe space for them to explore and express their feelings.

My Family is Changing goes beyond other divorce books for kids, with:

• Understanding divorce—Help your child deal with some of the new challenges they might face—like separate houses, different weekend activities, and changing traditions—in a supportive way.
• 7 Insightful stories—Your child will discover that they aren't alone thanks to comforting stories about other children whose parents are also divorcing.
• Emotional discovery—Activities like drawing their changing family to making a calendar of things they want to do make this a standout among divorce books for kids.

Divorce books for kids should provide tools for kids to not just learn, but also share their feelings—and this book delivers results.
