“For many children, the divorce of their parents is an emotionally devastating milestone that shapes the rest of their lives. Carolyn Ellis brilliantly demystifies how to be a great single parent in this incredible book! I only wish it was available 30 years ago when my own parents divorced.”

“I love this book because sometimes people going through divorce need to be saved from themselves. Carolyn’s compassionate and common sense advice will save many a reader– and their children. I can see in her words that she has walked the path of divorce and become wiser for it.”
