Oliver, A Story of Adoption by Lois Wickstrom – Review by Alexandria Richard

Oliver, A Story About Adoption by Lois Wickstrom
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Only able to give a 4 because I feel like this book should have had more closure in the end, but I still thought the life lesson here about adoption is relevant and real.

I did think that the story was very believable for what adopted children will do and go through when hardships arise with their adopted family.
It’s easy for adopted children to think of “what if” and all the questions of “why” or “who.” when it comes to their birth parents. I did appreciate that Oliver’s adoptive parents confirmed that they loved him dearly and wanted him as their son. There was no question about that.

I thought the artwork was very well done. I loved the black and white scheme the illustrator used.
