David & Sue talk to Darren Mort who has just launched his first book which is for kids with separated parents called “Tommy and Tiger Terry“. The book is a project of the charity To Be Loved and its worthy aim is “to promote the prevention of mental illness amongst children and young adults exposed to extreme physical, psychological or emotional distress as a result of family violence or family breakdown, separation or divorce”. You can currently buy the book at the To Be Loved website and soon at bookstores.
Tommy and Tiger Terry is a compelling book for children and parents and a useful resource for any separated family to assist children to make sense of it all. The aim is easy – as we all want our kids to grow up into well balanced and psychologically healthy adults. Tommy aims to help kids understand that they are not alone.
“Tommy is a kid like so many from separated households: he loves his Mum; he loves his Dad. On his wish list, he would like them to reconcile – but, that is not going to happen.Importantly, Tommy believes it’s all his fault. To address his feelings of conflict, Tommy has an imaginary friend, Tiger Terry, who relieves Tommy’s anxieties and confusion. Playfully, Tiger Terry travels on adventures with Tommy and provides him with avenues of escape, so that he can better understand his parents and his family situation. A compelling book for children and parents and a useful resource for any separated family to assist children to make sense of it all. The aim is easy – as we all want our kids to grow up into well balanced and psychologically healthy adults. Tommy is just the read to help kids understand that they are not alone.”
