A first conversation about family change

Framed as part of the Just Enough series, Jillian Roberts’s book addresses separation and divorce as changes young children may have questions and worries about. The description highlights a common concern—that children might blame themselves or feel uncertain about their place in the family—and presents the book as a starting point for conversations between children and caregivers. Its subject sits alongside other challenging topics covered in the series, including birth, death, and diversity.
