What readers are saying:
★★★★★ “”Mum, Dad Can you hear me?” is a powerful story that illustrates how the hostility and fear adults experience during divorce impacts their children. Too often parents are so caught up in their emotional turmoil that they are unconscious of the collateral damage occurring to their kids. ” ~ Lisa Brick, Divorce & Relationship Coach at Journey Beyond Divorce
★★★★★ “I enjoyed this book. It created a real feeling of understanding the little girl and how all of us can sometimes forget the effect we can have on the younger people around us. The book is written very well and illustrated beautifully.” ~ Amazon customer
