Hi! I'm Little Ben, I'm 10 years old, and yep, I'm going to repeat a grade!
With my sister Lola, who's 5, we've had a tough year. Our parents suddenly decided they didn't love each other anymore, and, well, they decided to split up. And let me tell you, Lola, and I really didn't see that coming!
I'm going to tell you about all the changes we've been through in our lives, all because grown-ups are often quite wacky and make choices that sometimes bother the little ones! We didn't ask for any of this with Lola; it hit us like a big storm, a tempest, or even a hurricane!
But with Lola, we held on tight and even rebelled sometimes! Anyway, things are much better now. After all, parents' divorce is not the end of the world, believe me!
Starting from the perspective of today's children, this book aims to help both kids and adults understand and, most importantly, not make too big a deal out of it...
