Book excerpt: A Bucket full of Love was written for children trying to cope with divorce. It is loved by educators and kids alike. Children will recognize that the love they received since birth cannot be erased by their parent's separation. A Bucket Full of Love is a book for ages four and older, providing compassionate answers. It follows the emotions of a little girl who feels sad. She lives with her dad and she hasn't seen her mom for a long time. She misses her so much that she tries to come up with reasons for how she might solve the problem. Finally she gets to share her pain with Grandma. Will Grandma's advice enable her to cope with her sadness and confusion?Author H. C. Wingert speaks from experience. A child of divorce herself, she is now the grandmother of two girls who are dealing with the separation from their mother. She says, "A Bucket Full of Love has emerged from observing the pain that the children cannot verbalize." Wingert says she too has experienced hopelessness and helplessness, and most of all the yearning for the other parent. The intent of the book, she says, "is not to put blame on anyone, but rather to help children to be able to accept what is.""In a day and age when one in two marriages are ending in divorce and 65% of those have children who must face the pain of living in a divided family environment, A Bucket Full of Love is a balm for the heart." writes OutskirtsPress.
