Description: BY IRENE WINEMAN MARCUS & PAUL MARCUS, PHD, ILLUSTRATED BY SUSAN JESCHKE

Early separations?whether to go to school, a playgroup, camp, or to visit grandparents alone?can be as upsetting as they are exciting for both children and parents. How these events are handled can affect how children behave in similar situations throughout their lives.

This delightful tale about a young prince's adventures away from home explores the insecurity and anger children may feel and gently suggests ways to resolve their conflicts by relying on their own strengths.

Ages 3-7, 32 pages, 29 illustrations, 7 1/2 x 8 1/2"
