Our New Normal
Great News!
"Our New Normal" is a perfect book for EVERY CHILD, including the child at heart!
Life is full of changes and adjustments. As adults, we do not always take the time (or know the words) to explain to children when they are wondering what is happening around them. Often, as adults, we forget that we were once a child experiencing changes, such as, a new school, new sibling, death in the family, etc. and how hard it was for us to understand and make sense of the world around us. Children understand the world around them through the eyes of the adults in their lives.
"Our New Normal" takes you through the story of a child and his family (and entire world) experiencing a MAJOR life change with uncertain outcomes. This story gives a great example of how BIG topics can be discussed with children.
