Summary	"About 2 percent of children in the United States are adopted. Some of these children may be adopted from another country. Other children are adopted out of foster care or after a parent voluntarily gives them up. Sometimes, a stepparent may adopt the children of their spouse. This book carefully approaches the different types of adoption and some of the challenges that families through adoption may face. It encourages young readers to consider how adoption affects a family and how they can understand peers who are adopted"-- Provided by publisher.
