"""I absolutely love this!!! This book will be very helpful too many homes."" - Mrs. Jessica Anderson (Mom and Educator) “I just read 'See You Later' by Terry Smith. This book brings up a very important topic that kids will want to discuss. Speaking from personal experience, just having a place to discuss feelings around divorce and separation is monumental, and this book provides just that place. I think that young children could benefit from reading this book together with an adult. I wasn't sure what 'Pictures by Pocketsize Doodles' means, but, for me, the illustrations help reinforce the meaning of each page's text. Well done!” - Ellenrak’s Goodreads “This very necessary and well worded story will help so many families and children facing divorce and/or separation. Giving a child the words to use and a new concept to heal their hearts are well portrayed in the story and illustrations. I’m glad to have been sent this book to review before publication.” - Sharon the Librarian’s Goodreads “See You Later A story about a young girl named Malucyya and what happens as her parents go through a divorce. I appreciated this book because it was simple and straightforward about the many emotions a family unit will feel while going through such a difficult time. Towards the end of the story, Malucyya’s parents give her a strategy to use so she isn’t so upset when she has to say bye to another parent.” – The Cozy Book Mom “Children whose parents are going through a divorce will find comfort in this short and sweet book! Love that it included the photo and real-life story about the family that inspired the book. Thanks Book Publicity Services for sending me a copy to review before publication.” - Laura’s Review of See You Later on Goodreads “This book would be perfect for Preschool-Kindergarten aged children to learn about and/or feel seen in regards to parents separating/divorcing. I loved the introduction of important vocabulary such as ""visitation schedule"" which can allow for the reader to pause and discuss what these terms mean for young children to understand. I also enjoyed the use of repetition at the end of the book which can allow the audience (children) to repeat alongside Malucyya as she says ""See you later"" to her different family members. Such a simple shift in terms can make all the difference for children and grownups alike!” - Vanessa De Riggs-Golden Review of See You Later on Goodreads "
