About the Author

Dan McMillan is a therapist and psychologist in Alberta, Canada, and the father of two young children. This story was originally created to help highlight a common, hurtful pattern in couples' relationships. One day he told the story to his daughters and found they really enjoyed it as well. So a kid-friendly version was born in hopes of both entertaining children and sharing important information for parents to be aware of. One of the most challenging periods in a couple's relationship is during the early years of childrearing. Their relationship has an important influence on the emotional environment and home their children are raised in. Thus it felt important to try to share this educational metaphor via a fun, safe story for all!
