The Star - A Story to Help Young Children Understand Foster CareSaturday May 17, 2008
Author and foster mother, Cynthia Miller Lovell, contacted me about the book she wrote back in 1999, for younger foster children. I found her book, The Star and its handbook for foster parents to be a wonderful resource for fostering families. What other books have you found helpful in your foster homes?
