Summary Being placed into foster care can be a confusing experience for children. They might not understand why their parents can't care for them, and they may have trouble adjusting to life with a new family. This book shows readers what they might expect when entering foster care. The age-appropriate text provides guidance for dealing with the many emotions that come with a major life event such as meeting a new foster family. The book also touches on what to expect if a foster family situation doesn't work out.
