A wnderful way to introduce your child to domestic or inter-racial adoption
I've adopted two children and both are of a different race than myself. They are 3 1/2 and I felt it was time to start bringing up the topic of adoption and what it means. This book is very simple and sweet and they both connected to the story very quickly. Choco is a little bird all alone and decides to find his mother. Every animal he goes up to he searches for a similar character to one he has and asks that animal "Are you my mother" After being told no by several animals, Choco is very upset and doesn't even ask the bear in front of him that question whle he sits and cries. The bear comes up and wants to hear why Choco is crying. After learning his story, she asks him lovingly "If you had a Mama, what would she do for you right now?" Choco goes on to tell the Bear what he needs and ... I've adopted two children and both are of a different race than myself. They are 3 1/2 and I felt it was time to start bringing up the topic of adoption and what it means. This book is very simple and sweet and they both connected to the story very quickly. Choco is a little bird all alone and decides to find his mother. Every animal he goes up to he searches for a similar character to one he has and asks that animal "Are you my mother" After being told no by several animals, Choco is very upset and doesn't even ask the bear in front of him that question whle he sits and cries. The bear comes up and wants to hear why Choco is crying. After learning his story, she asks him lovingly "If you had a Mama, what would she do for you right now?" Choco goes on to tell the Bear what he needs and she acts out every deed just as he explains it. She invites him home to have some pie and meet her other children, who are an Alligator, Pig and Hippo. Choco realizes, that everything he needs is there for him and it doesn't look like what he thought it was supposed to. My daughter (from China) said the first time "But they don't match" I looked her in the eyes and said "Do you and I look exactly alike? My hair is red and yours is black; my eyes are blue and yours are brown"; She acknowledged this as true. I went on, "but you and I love each other very much and you are my daughter forever and ever and I will always be your Mommy, right?" She shook her head yes and seemed happy. My son's reaction at the very same time, "They don't need to match they are a family". This brought a topic to the forefront I had been hesitant to bring up. They both seemed satisfied and we now have a great story to referance when it comes up again in the future; and it will. A great starter book to teach kids people all look different, but it is what we get from the inside that matters and where we all look very much alike. I definitely recommend this for the adopted child, particularly if you've adopted inter-racially.

A MUST HAVE BOOK!!!
This is by far the best "adoption" book I've read, I love it. It's simple, cute, and gets a very big point across that it doesn't matter how different our family might look but that we are all family and love is what matters. It's appropriate for any age child. I could read this to a baby all the way up to my 7 year old. I think this is a must have book for every adoptive family!! God Bless!
