Book Synopsis
Calvin has lived in many houses that never felt like home, but Maggie, his new foster mother, helps him deal with his emotions when he misbehaves, and still offers hugs.

Trade Review
Most books with this much purpose fall down on the lessons. This one transcends them, for a true story of how a home happens. * School Library Journal, Starred Review *
Ultimately, the book is as much a model for foster parents as it is a story to provide validation of foster children’s experiences… Gentle and wise—especially as a read for foster parents. * Kirkus Reviews *
