 Paperwork Pregnant and loving this book! December 11, 2008
This is a fabulous book! It was a present from a friend when we started our adoption paperwork and since then I've shared it with a social worker friend who has 2 adopted grade school girls and they loved it and approved of it! Great, Great book! This is also fabulous since it has all different colors of parents, kids and dogs as well as all mom/mom, dad/mom, dad/dad and older parent pictures!
 Learning about families November 2, 2008
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
 Oops August 24, 2008
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!

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?
Great for kids July 27, 2008
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.
