Artikelbeschreibung des Verkäufers

Foster and adopted children often feel that no one else has shared their experiences and feelings. When they find that they are not alone, it makes their challenges easier to handle. If they also learn tools for handling those challenges, they are strengthened.Baron's book is a gift of empowerment for children in the difficult transition to adoption from foster care. THE WHOLE ME lets children know that others may feel both sad and happy or worried and hopeful as they enter adoptive families. Most importantly, Baron's story demonstrates how it helps for children to talk with adults about those mixed feelings so that they can make sense of their challenges and continue to move forward in life (Marilyn Schoettle, author of the W.I.S.E.UP Powerbook)As a child welfare advocate, Baron has captured through story, with the full-bodied illustrations of Goldfine, the losses children experience on their journey to permanency. A must for children ages 6-12 who have been in the foster care system. A wonderful resource for both parents and adoptive children. (Debbie B. Riley, Executive Director, Center for Adoption Support and Education)At last A book that sensitively and accurately expresses the feelings of children adopted from foster care. Therapists and parents will appreciate having this treasure to use with children. (Madeline Krebs, MSW, Clinical Social Worker)As the parent of twelve children, and the foster parent of numerous children, eight of whom joined our family through adoption, I applaud Baron's sensitivity, insightfulness and compassionate look at our children's plight through the foster care system into adoption. This book has been so helpful in engaging my children in conversations about their experiences and memories. Hurrah for this wonderful book to which my family can honestly relate. (Kathleen O. Dugan, adoptive and foster parent). …
