PS
As she smiles out a window of a cozy-looking brick home, a girl explains that sometimes she lives with Mom. Lift up the front of the house, and now she peers out from an equally inviting high-rise, where she lives with Dad. Children with divorced parents often lead bifurcated lives, and Walsh's lift-the-flap book acknowledges this common situation in a welcoming, straightforward manner.
