Such youngsters often need and can benefit from counseling intervention. One particularly appropriate intervention is bibliotherapy. Reasons for using bibliotherapy for such youngsters are provided, and specific methods and materials are suggested.

Key Words: divorce • bibliotherapy • preadolescents • children • books • counseling
