No Ordinary Family! Reviews

¡¡Este libro es maravilloso!! La historia comienza con unos pequeños viajando con sus maletitas y nos van explicando como era antes ( cuando sus padres estaban juntos ), lo cuál resume mucho la situación que muchos pasan a menudo cuando una familia se separa. Y bueno, una familia se separa , otra; se une . Es una historia bonita narrada desde el punto de vista de los hijos y estoy segura que muchos se sentirán identificados. Yo recomendaría este libro para los pequeños que están pasando por el divorcio de sus padres y quizás la reconstrucción de un hogar pero está vez mamá y papá por su propio lado y con sus respectivas familias.

Bei uns gibt es einen Bibliotheksbus und aus diesem bringen unsere Kinder immer wieder überraschende Bücher mit nach Hause. Das Thema betrifft uns nur sekundär - über Freunde, aber es beschäftigt die Kinder. Dieses Buch hat uns allen sehr gefallen. Es hat das Thema mit viel Humor und Liebe angefasst. Sehr schön!

A fantasy fictional story about children coping with divorce. A family of bandits start off happy until their parents decide to get a divorce. Their father eventually meets a princess, along with her princess and prince children, and the father and the princess get married. The bandit children are not happy about this and try to scare the princesses and the prince away. The children realize after scaring them away that their father really loved them as much as he loved them, so they go and get them back. When they go to visit their mom, they find out she has meet someone too, only it's not a someone, but a dragon and his dragon kids are added to the family. Readers will see this unique alternative to talking about divorce in families and to see the positive outlook it can bring families. I would use this book to help a child cope with what happens during a divorce.

A story that reads like a fairytale and deals with the difficult subject of divorce. Reader watch as the relationship falls apart, parents, split, children adjust to spending time in two different households, and then adjust again to the blended family that each of their parents creates.
A great book for sharing with children who are going through this type of rough patch, especially because the ending is a positive one and the story is told from the kids' perspectives. PreK-2. -

Not what I was expecting when I picked it up. Very weird, in a sort of cute way. A story about blended families (blended in more than one way).

This was a fun and numerous book about the benefits and struggles of living with a divided family. How all families are unique in their own ways and even though it may not always be the way you want it, you can all come together and have a great time. Both children and parents! I thought this was a great and humorous representation of those who are in divorced families and have step siblings and parents. I really enjoyed this story.
