Our Review

This compassionate picture book uses friendly dinosaur characters to help children understand and process family separation and divorce situations. Through simple, age-appropriate language and colorful illustrations, it addresses common concerns kids face when parents separate, covering everything from divided living arrangements to managing big emotions. The book normalizes feelings of confusion, sadness, and anger while providing concrete examples of how families can adapt to new circumstances, making complex family changes accessible for young readers.

What sets this family guide apart is its gentle yet honest approach to difficult topics, presenting information through relatable dinosaur scenarios that create just enough emotional distance for children to engage without feeling overwhelmed. The book serves as an excellent conversation starter for parents and caregivers looking to support children through family transitions, offering reassurance that while families may change, love and connection remain constant. This resource proves particularly valuable for helping children aged 4-8 develop emotional literacy and resilience during family restructuring.
