"For all the kids who wonder how the jigsaw puzzle pieces of their newly combined family will ever fit together," MacGregor has created another warm and understanding resource for children of divorce. Jigsaw Puzzle Familyhelps kids realize they're not alone--many, many other kids are dealing with a new stepparent... new rules in the house... new stepbrothers and/or stepsisters... living somewhere new. Readers will find engaging stories of children facing the same issues, dozens of practical and helpful suggestions for making stepfamily life better, gentle guidance in understanding the mixed feelings that go with fitting into a blended ("jigsaw puzzle") family, and lots of reassurance that time will help.
