Our new lifebook is written and illustrated to engage the child. The book is both entertaining and therapeutic. It helps the child document their life and process the emotions associated with the many transitions they may experience.
This color-filled book offers a lot of opportunities for each child to personalize their book. Using a tree as a symbol of strength and whimsical characters designed to engage the child, each chapter addresses the needs of the foster or adoptive child. The activity pages are designed to not only be therapeutic but fun as well.
"I Am the Star" gives the child the opportunity to express how they feel about themselves. "My Roots" has lots of room to record birth family information. "Branching Out into Foster Care" provides plenty of space to record the details of each foster care experience. The "Sprouting New Leaves" chapter is perfect for the child who will be going through the adoption process. As an added treat, the chapter includes recipes for the new family to make together that will create memories to last a life time.
Social workers, foster parents and adoptive parents alike will enjoy working with children as they complete this book.
