1: Learning about families
I am an adoptive parent and I think this book is cute and sends a great message. My 19 month old son loves the bright illustrations and someday soon he will love to hear the story of our family was formed

2: Oops
I love the illustrations, but as many other reviews said, the message is so one sided and sad. It gives the feeling that the child should be grateful to be adopted. I adopted my son through foster care and have the same reaction when people say what a wonderful thing my husband and I are doing. I always feel they have it so wrong, my son was the wonderful thing that happened to us!

3: what is a family?
We belong together. This book tell the story of all types of families with many different colors and sizes. I bought this book for a friend who adopted a little girl and she is a single mom, It shows that many different types of people which makes a family, you've got the single mom,the single dad, the two parent family, with mom and dad and mom and mom and dad and dad. Every type of family. All you need is love to make a family. I loved the colors and it made me smile. I know it will make any little adopted child smile as well. I was so excited i showed it to all my friends and everyone loved it. Its a must have. SO now what do you think makes a family?

4: Great for kids
I read this book to my son, adopted from Russia at age 3. I felt the message was very appropriate, simple to read, and conveyed how much all of us need each other.

5: We love this book
This is one of my 3-year-old son's favorite books and my 6-year-old daughter loves to read it to him. I think it shows a very positive view, although others in different situations may disagree.
