Media Reviews
Sensitive ... The weblinks are probably one of the most useful features of the book, especially for readers directly involved in the break up of a relationship ... the whole tone of the book is calm, soothing and optimistic, but all aspects of relationship break up are dealt with. -- School Librarian 20040901 '[The Why? titles] could be used as a useful resource to help children express themselves and voice their opinions.' -- Learning Support Service, Autumn 2002 20040901
