Praise for The Field Guide for Single Parents
“Hankin, a business consultant and single parent, and Ames, a family therapist, debut with an ambitious guide to single-parenting… gives readers plenty of ideas for forming their own single-parenting blueprints. This will be a boon to readers looking for new approaches to solo parenting.”
– Publishers Weekly
“Hankin presents a comprehensive guide that offers workable solutions for pressing issues facing single parents … taps into the largely unspoken and ignored aspects of single parenting … Hankin’s narrative voice is straightforward and no-nonsense, while still offering a sense of warmth and support that will likely come as a welcome relief to readers … anecdotes strewn throughout are, notably, not merely success stories of children thriving in a one-parent household … along with Hankin’s considerate counsel, ultimately create a realistic and hopeful portrait of possibilities.”
“Pat Hankin’s The Field Guide for Single Parents is the book I wish I’d had a decade ago … Hankin’s writing style is clear, practical, and conversational, and reads like a chat with a knowledgeable, caring friend with lots of experience …Hankin has a mature perspective that’s grounded and necessary … This guide effectively combines actionable suggestions with a tone that respects the reader’s intelligence and experience, making it a reliable resource for those seeking constructive support … Very highly recommended.”
