My SIL's husband moved out on Monday for another woman. SIL devastated and at home with 2dcs - 1 dd of 12 weeks and one ds of 19 months. SIL trying to be 'nice' about daddy in front of the dcs but really worried about how they'll take it. She asked me today if I knew of any books where lone parents are seen doing normal stuff that might be appropriate for her ds. He loves books but SIL says she finds it hard reading him 'Mummy, Daddy, Nuclear Family' books atm and would also like him to see some stories of separated parents (in a positive light) as well as all his favourites.
Anybody know of books suitable for a toddler in this situation? Has anybody had a good experience of helping a child though something similar with books?
Thanks so much in advance.
