Oliver, A Story of Adoption by Lois Wickstrom – Review by Donya Pedigo

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

When Oliver gets in trouble he goes to his room upset. In his room he starts thinking about what life would be like if he was still living with his biological parents instead of being adopted. He ponders what it would be like to have a different family and how much that would change his life. Would he have brothers and sisters? Would he get in trouble like he did now? Would he live with one parent or both parents? So many questions and different possibilities compared to his life now.

This is an amazing book about different kinds of families and the thoughts that go through a child’s imagination. This book would be wonderful for anyone dealing with adoption. I also think any kid who gets in trouble would also enjoy this book, because they can see that even if they get in trouble and dream they were somewhere else in some other family, that in the end their family loves them no matter what. It is a really great and powerful message!
