The Missing Piece

The Missing Piece is a Mom's Choice Gold Award recipient.

 

A heartwarming story of child adoption and the different ways loving families are created. 

A loving family works together on a puzzle when an important piece is nowhere to be found. As the mother, father, and three children search high and low through cupboards, on bookshelves, outside, each and every day, it becomes apparent that they are waiting for the missing piece, hoping and loving that it will come along. And when it does, the overjoyed family is finally complete.

The Missing Piece is perfect for adoptive families, birth families, and anyone wanting to introduce young children to adoption with sensitivity and care. This story offers a simple, metaphor that helps toddlers and preschoolers understand belonging, connection, and hope.

Reviews for The Missing Piece

"This is such a sweet way to talk about adoption, and about both the birth mother and adoptive family loving the child so so much, and wanting to find the best fit for the child. It's just done in a sweet and loving way, that shows how much thought and tenderness goes into adoption process. Beautiful pictures, and written in poetry, that just feels really sweet and honest."
