Reach for this book when your child is struggling with the 'invasion' of a new sibling, a foster placement, or simply having to share their cherished belongings with guests.

It is a perfect tool for validating the anger and jealousy that often come with major family changes. Nick Bruel uses humor to mask a deep dive into empathy and the difficulty of hospitality.
