When Lily and her little brother Zac begin living in two homes, everything feels different.

Warm, relatable, and beautifully illustrated, Even When… I have two homes helps children understand that change can feel confusing, but love remains whole, even when life looks different.
From the heartwarming Even When series, stories that help children navigate the big feelings that come with family change, love, and growing up.
