Oh, How Loved You Are takes you and your looked after child on a journey from Tummy Mummy right through foster care and into the transition of adoption and permanency.


It explores the emotions and feelings the child may have and how loved the child was on their journey to finding their forever home.
Perfect for foster carers to read with their looked after child, this book allows them to make sense of their own story, and why them came into foster care. It highlights that the child’s story has a beginning before being placed into care, and continues to explore the fun the child brought to the foster home without shying away from exploring difficult feelings and emotions encountered along the way.
This child focussed book gives way for exploration and acceptance of the child’s own unique story and giving them the room to navigate the tricky feelings that come with the transition period as they move out of care and into permanency.
Identifying feelings and talking about them not only empowers the child, but naturally encourages conversations, and acceptance, about what is happening and why things are changing.
You will laugh and you will cry reading this beautiful resource and more importantly, give children in care a chance to be seen and heard as well as recognise that they were so incredibly loved along the way.
