My guest Shannon Forster, who has created a children's book called Love Grows and Grows, is helping so many families. Her story shows that ALL types of families are special!!!!! The book now has a global audience and is a "must have" book for all co-parenting and blended families after a divorce.
The book has characters styled as human-hybrid flowers; which themselves are a metaphor for growth and evolution towards love. The story follows young siblings Flora and Leaf as they transition into a new and unfamiliar life between two homes- one with Mom, and one with Dad and his new wife. Their journey highlights the challenges associated with creating extended families: a child's apprehension of meeting someone new, and eventually choosing to accept and embrace this person to become a part of their secular world. With love and patience, we see a mom and a step-mom model a wonderful example of how to put their children first, working together to create a blended family with happy and confident kids. This example of unconditional love is what empowers Flora and Leaf to embrace a new definition of a typical family, and cultivate a new "normal" that benefits everyone involved.
