Description
In a poignant, tenderly told story, a little girl feels confused and overwhelmed by her birth Dad and his new wife and children and her step Dad. Unlike her friends, she has two dads, two homes and two sets of rules. Jessica's Two Families tells in an open and insightful way that will help children ages 4-9 how parents and kids can explore together the difficulties and find the joys of having two households. Follow Jessica through her turbulent days encountering the problems of: having to share living space. being disciplined by a "new" parent. coping with different rules, values and lifestyles. not knowing how to relate to new step-siblings. feeling angry or sad and not comfortable talking about her two families. In this accessible, touching book, children will learn that it's normal and "okay" when there are problems and that learning to function together as a blended family takes time. Each family will have its own unique characteristics and strengths. But most importantly, the love of an extended family can grow, become strong and be no less powerful.
