Divorce Is Not the End of the World: Zoe's and Evan's Coping Guide for Kids

My daughter was 5 when I went through my divorce. She is 10 now, and still loves this book! Not only did it generate quality conversations about difficult topics, but it helped her to feel that she wasn't alone and her feelings were normal! I definitely recommend this book to anyone who has children and is going through the awful process of a divorce!

My 10 seven year old enjoy reading the book together. It’s a little too advanced for my six-year-old.

What a great book this is! Written by kids, for kids. It speaks to them on their terms, in real language. Even encourages interacting and communicating with their parents about what they are feeling. Must have resource, in my opinion, for anyone going through a divorce with kids.

I bought this book for my 10 year old to read through as her dad and I are beginning a divorce. It is written in perfect vocabulary for her age, and from the perspective of actual children. I am grateful that I found it, because I wouldn't have know what all to say or what issues she is encountering/would encounter.

An excellent read for a tween whose parents were going through a divorce. Written by kids the age of the tween it was bought for, it acknowledges real-world feelings. Instead of telling the reader that "everything is okay and going to be peachy" it provides them an outlet to privately work out negative emotions, scary emotions, all the while telling them that these feelings are okay and that they will recover and get through it. It is an interactive book and is designed for the tween to go through it at their own pace. It's written in their language (not using PhD-level psych words) so they can understand and relate. It helped the reader to ask different types of questions and explore their feelings deeper instead of trying to shut down and hide their feelings.

I use this book as a resource in my counseling practice when working with middle school aged children. It is very insightful and practical from two smart "kids" who have navigated the world of divorce apparently quite successfully.PSH- Ohio

I purchased this for my 8 year old granddaughter to read. I felt it was better suited to 12+. It is a little too much for a younger child to comprehend. I am keeping it though as a reference and to maybe give it to her when she's older if it is necessary. I wish they would trim it down to about half the size.

OUTSTANDING. LOVE IT. CANNOT WAIT TO GIVE THIS TO MY CHILD. IT WILL HELP HIM DEAL. HELP HIM UNDERSTAND THINGS AS THEY REALLY ARE. HELP HIM MOVE FORWARD WITH MORE CONFIDENCE ABOUT THE FUTURE.

As a grandmother this was wonderful to inform me. Will give it to the grandsons later.. Very tough times made a bit lighter.

I liked that Zoe & Euan have different thinking styles so there was variation in the way they wrote their thoughts and tips which is more likely to appeal to a wider number of children. I’m using this book to encourage my 12 year old grandson to talk about the ongoing impact of his parents splitting up (when he was 4) on his life. It’s really helpful for him to see that other kids have got through the same situations.

Great for my children aged 12 and 10 to start thinking about divorce.

Definitely recommended .
