| Publisher Description: This is an Endearing Story of a young Aboriginal foster child who is given a special gift by his foster mother. Her gift of warmth and thoughtfulness helps her young foster children by encouraging self-esteem, acceptance and love. Written as a simple story, it speaks of a positive foster experience. The character of the foster mother advocates pride: "She told me that my background was Native and that it was a good thing to be." This book will pull your heartstrings, similar to Munsch's classic children's story "Love You Forever. Written for children of any background, with its positive message of unconditional love. You will feel warmed after reading this story, like slipping into a cozy pair of moccasins. |
