Rosie's Family; An Adoption Story May 25, 2002

I really like this book because it encouraged me to ask my parents questions about my adoption. I had some of the same worries that Rosie had, which made me realize that a lot of kids probably do too. I love the drawings and that the characters are dogs!

I am so happy this book was written! I have a 5 year old daughter and I was having a hard time finding a book about adoption which she could relate to. My daughter loved the book and colourful drawings of the animals. The text was easy for my daughter to understand. After reading the book my daughter and I had an open discussion about adoption and the "notes for parents" at the end of the book helped me tremendously. My daughter now has a better understanding about adoption and feels comfortable talking about it. This book should be part of every childs library!

This is a really cute way to introduce adoption to a child or other family members. It touches on a lot of issues that will probably come up, including looking different from your parents, being sad, dealing with other people's comments and how to talk about a birthmother. Since it is done from the point of view of a puppy it is kid friendly and is easy to read.

As the nanny to two wonderful adopted children I have searched far & wide for books that introduce the subject of adoption to them appropriately. This book has been well received by both children (2.5 & 7 years old). They both routinely request it at bedtime & it has inspired many open conversations on how they came to be a part of their family.

I read this book to my class, and received a tremendous response from my 4th grade students. The book illustrates easy-to-understand principles of adoption, and highlights how it is important to tolerate the differences among each of us.
