What it is
My People gives kids a gentle way to map out who's in their world: who takes care of them, who they love near or far, and who they trust. It was made for kids being raised by grandparents or relatives, in foster or adoptive families, or in any family that doesn't look like a storybook picture. There's no wrong answer, and every page leaves room for a child's family to look however it looks.
What's included
- My People map with 3 rings: people who take care of me, family I love near or far, friends and trusted grown-ups
- My Home page
- Who I Can Talk To (a person for each of 6 feelings)
- Feelings About My Family, plus a page for the questions kids are carrying
- 6 People Who Love Me cards to draw, name and cut out
- Grown-up guide
