5.0 out of 5 stars Helpful way to explain foster care to children, August 2, 2001
By 
Cindy & Dick Lovell (Battle Creek, MI United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: My Foster Family: A Story for Children Entering Foster Care (Paperback)
This book gives a thorough, and easy to understand, explanation of what foster care is. A boy waiting to visit his mother tells what it means to be a foster child to two children who were just taken from their family. This book is a good resource for foster parents and foster children. -Cynthia Miller Lovell, author of The Star: A story to help young children understand foster care, and Questions & Activities for The Star: A handbook for foster parents

3.0 out of 5 stars Where are the Dads?, July 20, 2006
By 
Linda Arata (Portland, OR USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: My Foster Family: A Story for Children Entering Foster Care (Paperback)
This book is thorough and clear, printed in a black and white coloring book format. The text is wordy, suitable for school-age kids with reasonable attention spans. Hyperactive children or those under about 5 would find it too long.
I was concerned that there is no mention of fathers in the book at all. As such, it reinforces the idea that fathers do not matter, and that they have no responsibility toward their children.

I'm a foster care case manager and I think this is a great book to share with young children who are in foster care.
