However, the message of this book is that life goes on.<em>--School Library Journal</em></p><br><br><p>Told from the perspective of Dinah, the youngest in the Bear family, this simple story captures very young children's perceptions of divorce, along with their questions, emotions, and fears. Spelman shows how divorce disrupts the sameness children depend on in their lives and their need for reassurance as they become secure with their new situation. Parkinson's watercolors effectively convey the story's message.<em>--The Horn Book Guide</em></p><br>
