A parent would reach for this book when their family is transitioning into two separate households and they want to provide a sense of stability and reassurance. This gentle story follows a young boy named Alex as he navigates life between his mother's house and his father's house, highlighting the unique comforts he finds in each location. It is an ideal choice for children ages 3 to 6 who are experiencing divorce or separation for the first time. Rather than focusing on the conflict or the reasons behind the split, the book emphasizes what is gained, such as having two of everything: two front doors, two bedrooms, and two sets of friends. It is a profoundly positive and matter of fact resource that helps children feel secure in the knowledge that while their environment has changed, the love their parents have for them remains constant. Parents will find it a helpful tool to open up conversations about their own new family dynamic in a non threatening way.
