Mom and Dad Glue
"Mom and Dad Glue" is a direct and compassionate picture book for young children who are experiencing divorce or separation. The rhyming story is comforting and honest, just right to be attuned to the sensitivities of kids age 5-8. The dramatic and colorful illustrations convey so much of the emotional disorder that children of divorce experience, yet with a gentle humor and patience that encourages the child to believe that yes, it hurts, yes it is unfair and scary, and no, it is not their fault and not their job to fix the problem, and finally, somehow a child can pull his or her life together, survive and make the best of things, even though "There is no glue for hearts."Midwest Book Review"I just receivedMom and Dad Gluein my store, and I want to thank Kes Gray for writing such an outstanding book for kids, guidance counselors and therapists. I have contacted all the schools I deal with, as well as my superiors, to tell them to reorder and keep in stock . . . . Truly brilliant!!"Dee Sockol-FryeBooksellerMatawan, NJ
