Coping strategies for kids going through a divorce

That Missing Feeling
Written by Amy Ludwig
VanDerwater
Illustrated by Morena Forza
Mia's life feels split in two after her
parents get divorced - even her cat
and dog now live in two separate
places. When she's at her dad's
house, Mia misses her mom's jokes
and singing. And when she's at her
mom's house, she misses her dad's
laugh and cooking. Mia just can't
quite shake that missing feeling, until
her grandpa shows her how he copes
with his own missing feelings.
