This is a very well-written book about adoption and the feelings that kids may have. Not only does it cover how an adopted child may feel but it also talks about how children may feel when they are mad at their parents and might wish they want a different life. I appreciate how the author approached the topic and made it a fun story that is entertaining yet covers real and important topics. This is a story that I will be sharing with my grandson. We have custody of him and it will help us explain some of how he feels is normal. Big feelings are okay. Great book that I recommend. ( )
