We Need to Talk About Divorce is a kid-centric guide for the children of parents going through a separation or divorce. Children of separating or divorcing parents often feel alone and alienated, as though no one (including themselves!) understands what they’re going through.

If you're stuck for gift ideas for the little people in your life, why not treat them to "Tales of World War II"? The book includes incredible, inspiring, strange, and powerful stories from across every theatre of the war.
Do you know the story of the bear who was recruited by the Polish army? How about the jazz singer who worked as a spy for the French Resistance?🐻🇫🇷 In Tales of World War II, kids will discover stories of such incredible bravery and human spirit that they won’t believe are real!

If you need a gift for children who like animals, may I recommend @neonsquidbooks A Day in the Life of series? My kids’ favorites are A Day in the Life of Birds by @TheLabAndField, A Day in the Life of Bugs, and A Day in the Life of Sharks.
