Description
From the author of award-winning children's story books, Delly Duck and Room in the Nest, comes another sensitively-crafted story featuring a mixture of familiar and new characters.
An adoption ceremony - often referred to as a Celebration Hearing, Pronouncement Hearing or Adoption Visit - can be a helpful tool to support therapeutic life story work and to help adopted children to understand what happened when a judge made important decisions about their lives.
This story is designed to show children what to expect at their adoption ceremony and to reassure them that the decision has already been made and will not change at the ceremony. It may be used to explain the purpose of the Celebration Hearing to a child's friends and classmates, and also serves as a thoughtful gift to help a child to understand and process the ceremony after the fact.
This story is suitable for adoption from foster care, not private adoption.
