Anastasia Higginbotham's essays have appeared in Ms., Bitch, Glamour, The Sun, The Women's Review of Books, and in the anthologies Listen Up, 33 Things Every Girl Should Know About Women's History, and Yes Means Yes.
The illustrations deliver a substantial emotional impact.. But it's
Higginbotham's directness and refusal to talk down to her audience
that will make this book such an asset to families negotiating
divorce.

who sees so clearly from her reader's point of view?"
--Julie Bowen, actress, Modern Family This book provides, through
honest language and evocative imagery, a uniquely realistic view of
how children experience divorce. While neither softening nor
whitewashing this difficult topic, Higginbotham offers an
ultimately comforting message to parents and children experiencing
separation and divorce.
--Lisa Spiegel, LMHC, director of Soho Parenting, NYC This is a
cool book full of medicine for the heartsick child.
