About this item
With childlike innocence and humor, a young narrator living with his single father and brother explains divorce and it's grown-up words - like "New Arrangement," "Ideal Situation," and "Differences" - from a kid's point-of-view. Special emphasis is placed on the fact that divorce is not the child's fault, that it is a grown-up problem. Deals with practical day-to-day matters such as single-family homes, joint custody, child-care issues, and misunderstandings. Includes Note to Parents. Full-color illustrations through-out. For ages 2-6.
About the Author
When Sandra Levins began writing children's books she fell in love with the message behind the stories and the notion that they can make a positive difference in the lives of children and families.
Sandra lives in Burlington, Iowa, with her husband Jim, and stepson Kevin. Kevin and his brother are the inspiration for her stories for little kids about divorce, "Was it the Chocolate Pudding? " and "Do You Sing Twinkle? "
Sandra's third book, "Eli's Lie-O-Meter", is a story about telling the truth. Having guided four sons to adulthood, with a teenager on the brink, Sandra thinks a Lie-O-Meter might have come in handy a time or two!
