KoKo, a loveable unisex bear, must learn what divorce means. Children can identify with KoKo's angry and sad feelings, recognize that these feelings are natural, and discover what it means to live in a family apart. Many helpful messages are conveyed with warmth and even a bit of humor through the colorful illustrations created by Jane Prince.

Parents are encouraged to allow children to carry this book between homes to be read with each parent, reinforcing its mesage when heard from both parents. Each page contains practical tips for parents to help them make the divorce transition easier.

This book is written for children whose parents both intend to stay involved in parenting after divorce.

Written for children ages 3 to 8.

excerpted from the book:

• Children need to hear age-appropriate reasons for your divorce. They do not need to hear about your anger or your blame.

• Crying is not a sign of weakness for a child—or a parent. Leaving or being left by someone you love hurts and crying is an honest and natural reaction to feeling sad.

• Keep in mind that every probem or difficulty your child has is not necessarily related to your divorce.

• Shared parenting will have glitches. Don't let that be your excuse for thinking it isn't working. Time smooths out most problems, but shared parenting—like life—is never perfect.
