Summary
Two Homes, One Heart: A Child’s Journey Through Two Worlds
Alex has two homes – one with Daddy and one with Mummy. That means two front doors, two bedrooms, and two distinctly cozy chairs he loves. There’s a toothbrush waiting for him at Mummy’s, and another at Daddy’s.
But no matter which parent Alex is with, one thing remains constant: he is always, deeply loved by both.
This heartwarming story gently portrays the life of a child navigating the realities of divorce…

About The Author
Claire Masurel
Claire Masurel is the author of numerous books for children. She wrote Two Homes after talking to a child who was upset after her parents’ recent divorce. In order to comfort the girl, “I talked about her two homes, and all the many things she could do in them. It was a positive way of helping her accept the changes in her life, focusing not on what was missed, but on the abundance of good times - and love - that she would continue to share with her Mum and Dad.”
Kady MacDonald Denton is one of Canada’s foremost illustrators and has won the General Governor Award. She lives with her family in Manitoba, Canada. About Two Homes, she says, “Alex talks about simple things like toothbrushes, bedrooms, and friends - and they are all special because they are part of the love Alex feels in both homes. I tried to show that love in the illustrations.”
