Henry and Grammy Kay Talk About Adoption Blueberry Illustrations

Henry is a shy six-year-old boy who has spent several years in the foster system. Now Adoption Day is just around the corner! Although Henry and his entire new family are very excited, he still has some questions about the adoption and what it will mean to everyone involved. Grammy Kay comes to visit and in their quiet moments together, she tries to answer his questions and alleviate any fears he may have. This beautifully illustrated book is about the special bond that exists between grandmothers and their grandchildren and is appropriate for all young children, even if they are not adopted. With more than 50,000 children in the United States transitioning from foster care to their forever homes each year, the author hopes this book will serve as a educational tool so that other children and adults will strive to make these kids feel welcome, accepted and loved. She has added a touch of humor (and geography!) to an otherwise serious subject.
