About this deal

As divorce is such a common yet difficult topic to explore with children, 'Mum and Dad Glue' is a necessary book that is accessible for all ages, full of longing and acceptance. This is an excellent book that follows a child's journey of coming to accept the separation of his parents. This message is conveyed in a meaningful way whilst being light hearted in the storyline approaching a difficult topic in a sensitive way.

The illustrations were very detailed and used warm toned colours which was quite effective in making me feel comforted whilst reading it. Having personally used this book to communicate divorce with younger family members, it is definitely a book I would recommend to any teacher etc!

This was a beautiful, a bit humorous, but also sad book about a boy and his parents who are going to separate. For children I could see this book working very well, whether the parents separation is going smoothly or not, this story promotes a key message that children need to understand if they are going through this. Every Second Friday by Kiri Lightfoot and Ben Galbraith is another message book about divorce, this time dealing with children getting used to having two different homes.

This book is written as a poem and tells the story of a little boy whos parents are getting divorced. This book will be a great book to have in my classroom to assist children when coming to terms with their parents splitting up! Whilst this is effective in delving deeper into the child's thoughts, I could not help but feel that it reduced the impact of the reading, as the book felt too long and drawn out.Told from the perspective of the boy allows the reader to step into his shoes and experience the emotions he is feeling and empathise with him.
