My six-year-old daughter loves this workbook. I think it is because it started out with questions about things OTHER than divorce, like "list three things that make you happy," and "draw a picture of you doing something you love." It eased into the more emotionally-charged issues, so by the time we got to them, she was comfortable with the process. I would recommend it, and the companion book for adults.
