At last! A wonderful book that celebrates adoption (specifically transracial adoption.)

Hope-So was adopted by a family that hoped so for a child to love and care for. Their hope was answered when a special little girl entered their family. Because they had hoped so for a child, they named her Hope-So. Hope-So wanted to pass on the love and family life she now had. She wanted to give her heart to a puppy that needed a little girl. And while she hoped for a puppy, a little puppy, without a family, hoped for the same.

Hope-So Too is the delightful story of the dreams that can come true when two hope together. It is also the celebration of love and family. The illustrations are stunning with loads of inviting and colorful images that will draw in children and adults alike.

Armchair Interviews says: Hope-So Too is a special story that will resonate with all families, not only adoptive families.

A wonderful story about hopes and dreams. This is a story about a little girl who was adopted and now wants to adopt a puppy of her own. She hopes and dreams of her puppy and when she goes to the shelter she finds the perfect one.

Beautiful, warm, illustrations.
