Description
This book helps children understand the divorce of same-sex parents and how a child's living situation may change. Once upon a time, Grayson's life was like a fairy tale. He lived in a big brick house with Papa and Daddy. They had chocolate chip pancakes on Saturdays and read bedtime stories together every night. But when Grayson's dads get a divorce, everything changes. First, Papa moves into an apartment. Then, Daddy moves into a smaller house. Now it's one week with Papa, then one week with Daddy. Will Grayson ever feel like himself again? Once Upon My Dads' Divorce sensitively portrays the challenges of moving from one house with both parents to two houses, and offers reassurance on many questions and feelings readers may have after their parents divorce.

A heartfelt conversation where both parents model ideal behavior during a divorce, talking through Grayson's feelings together and making clear that the divorce stemmed from mutual change rather than animosity...perfectly practical.-- "Kirkus Reviews"
