Two Places to Call Home cover

Florrie has two of everything.
Two lovely brothers . . .
Two smashing parents . . .
Two very cuddled pets.


But two isn't always a magic number, as Florrie now has to live in TWO different houses:
one with her mum . . . and one with her dad.

An uplifting picture book that helps young readers discuss their feelings around divorce and embrace change.
