Foster Adoption Books

I'm looking for books for young children on foster adoption. Most adoption books are about newborn domestic or international adoption which don't quite fit our family situation. Any suggestions?

Are you looking for informational books or children's books?

The Little Miss Spider books are neat. They are geared to the preschool set. Not meant to address any personal information or specific situations, just reinforcing that love doesn't have to come from someone biologically related, etc. I hadn't thought about them for a while, but saw them mentioned on another board.

Another great book is "A mother for Coco." Not sure of the author but search on Amazon.com That's where I found it. It tells the story of a little bird named Coco who can not find his mother. When he sees Mrs. Bear he knows she can not be his mom because she does not "look" like him. But in the end she becomes his mom. Very nice story.
