In 4th grade in 1975, I was the only kid in my class whose parents were going through a divorce. For some reason, I took it harder than my other 3 sisters. Then my mom found this book at a garage sale (the same copy is in the pic above). The main character goes through exactly what I did. It helped me endure. Her books were such a balm. 🧡🤎💛
