| Publisher Description: Children love animals, and animals need love too. An adorable picture book introducing children to foster care and adoption. This delightful little book teaches children about foster families. It explains in simple language why foster families are sometimes needed and what a foster family is and does. The transition from human foster families to animals is well done. Each aspect of difference is highlighted in a positive way. The pictures are clear enough for even the youngest child to understand and the language varied enough so it can be used as a read-to book for young children or a read-on-your-own for older children.-Mary Hosmar Excellent book that helps to explain why children live with foster or adopted parents. It is very age appropriate and it something that I have been wanting for my children for quite some time. Definitely recommend this book for foster carers. -Mumma JaJa Showing children that families can be made up of different cultures through using the beautiful images of the different animals who have "adopted", I believe not only does it teach compassion within a family, but also goes a long way to building harmony within a community. The images that the author has chosen melts your heart. I especially love who is schmoozing up to the tiger .... get the book to find out - it's worth it.-FeeOsh |
