From the Back Cover
Let's Talk About It!
When My Parents Forgot How to Be Friends
My parents used to be friends and I was happy. We did everything together.
Then things started changing.
My parents were always sad, and when they talked it was only to argue.
I used to think it was my fault that my parents weren't friends any longer . . . but now I understand that they can get along better if they each live in a different house.
Whatever happens, my Mom and Dad will never stop being my parents . . .
and best of all . . .
they will always love me.
