Synopsis

'We Love You' has been created to help parents and carers support their children when a family is going through separation or divorce. It is meant to guide everyone involved through the major life changes and to ease the process. 

It was inspired by Herve's Daughter: https://youtu.be/KcPKcmPLepg

Organised like a photo album, parents will guide their children through the family story, a love story: where the parents come from, how they met, got engaged, and how the family grew. Then as the parents realised they had their differences and decided to go their own ways what remains is : We Love You, no matter what.  And there is a future. The children will have two homes, two bedrooms, and still have fun with Mum and Dad, all their friends and extended families. 

The key message of We Love You is: while the parents are no longer a loving couple, they remain loving parents - forever.  

At the end of the book there is a Declaration of Commitment which both carers can sign to witness their mutual determination to be fully engaged parents. 

'We Love You' also comes with a free online guide designed for the parents with key information specifically for adults: http://www.herve-gwery.com/weloveyou_guide_one -  there you will find the story behind "We Love You' - together with tips on how to complete the book, as well as expert guidance on how to ease your emotions, how to deal with the separation or divorce and how to maintain your engagement with the child as you all manage the transition to a new family structure.  The online guide is brief but effective.  

About this title

About the Author:

Life Coach and MUTTON PRESS Founder and Director, Herve is an adventurist. He started his career as an architect and a designer and then dedicated 17 years to script development, film-making and film production. Herve first drew his Mutton character for his wife when they met in 2002. Originally appearing on Christmas and anniversary cards, the popularity of the character spread through family and friends; and since then many people have asked him to draw it for them. Herve believes that his 'Mutton' character represents Britain: "the new country that I had come to live in - like Mutton, Britain is nice, stoical, and with green grass all around, but lots of warm wool is needed!" During their divorce in 2011 Herve created We Love You to explain to their daughter what was going on and to announce that major change in her life. Inspired by the amazing response that both parents received from their daughter, Herve has dedicated his time since to creating and developing the 'We Love You' book series in order to reassure and support other children, and their parents and families, through the often unsettling experience of divorce and separation.
