About The Book
‘You may not have thought much about it, but did you know that some families change? Some get bigger, others smaller and some completely rearrange!’ Changes in the structure of a family can be joyful, turbulent, and especially confusing for little humans.
Some Families Change is a gentle and reassuring way of showing children that all families go through changes – it’s completely natural, and they are not alone. The book candidly explores concepts such as split families, single-parent households, families with two mums or dads, families that join together, and more, always maintaining sensitivity and sincerity.
Children grappling with these changes often harbor difficult feelings. The book validates these emotions, emphasizing that it's okay to feel upset or worried because adjusting to change takes time. By sharing this book, children and parents can embark on a journey of understanding and emotional healing together, reminding themselves that their feelings are normal, and it's healthy to express them.
A timely and therapeutic resource, Some Families Change assists families in navigating their emotional journey together, amidst the inevitable changes that life brings.
