Two Homes - One Happy Salma

A parent would reach for this book when their child is beginning to navigate the logistical and emotional complexities of living between two households after a divorce or separation. It is designed to provide a sense of continuity and security during a time of significant transition, focusing on the abundance of love rather than the lack of a single home base. The story follows young Salma as she describes her daily life, routines, and the unique items she keeps at both her mother's and father's houses. By highlighting the distinct joys found in each environment, the book helps children ages 3 to 7 understand that while their world has changed, their importance in the lives of both parents remains constant. It is a comforting choice for families seeking to normalize the two home experience and validate a child's feelings of belonging in both spaces.
