About This Book
A parent would reach for this book when their toddler or preschooler is beginning the transition between two households and needs help visualizing what their new daily reality looks like. This gentle story follows a young girl who has two of everything: two bedrooms, two sets of toys, and two different routines, while emphasizing that her parents' love remains the one constant that never changes. It is a perfect choice for children aged 2 to 5 because it uses simple, concrete language to address the logistical changes of divorce without overwhelming them with adult emotions. By focusing on the 'two of everything' concept, the book transforms a potentially scary life transition into a predictable and even cozy new rhythm. It provides a vital sense of security for children who might be feeling anxious about where they belong or what happens next.
