The inspiration for the Mrs Doubtfire film
The books parents are alot more dark and hateful to each other as theyve been divorced longer then the movie time frame 
Miranda is self centered and "unintentionally" mean, while dan is essentially useless and boardline violent at times
The book does have very good points and views for children going through divorce and theyre own emotional well being versus what their parents want 
But the book has alot more serious tone, has none of the fun loving Mrs. Doubtfire character introduced to us by the wonderful Robin Williamsđź–¤ but the movie did use very important parts of the conversations between Mrs Doubtfire and Miranda 
Its is mainly a british humor vs american humor moment for book vs movie
