Reviews
"Our family thought that Maybe Days did a great job describing the different professionals that are involved in the foster care process on a child's level. The book also does a pretty good job of describing the situation that a foster child is in - namely that it is not their fault and discussing the various situations they may find themselves."--Transfiguring Adoption
"The book validates different emotions and experiences....The book is good at simply explaining the different roles adults play."--Families.com
"For many children in foster care, the answer to many questions is often "maybe". Maybe Days is a straightforward look at the issues of foster care, the questions that children ask, and the feelings that they confront. A primer for children going into foster care, the book also explains in children's terms the responsibilities of everyone involved - parents, social workers, lawyers and judges. As for the children themselves, their job is to be a kid - and there's no maybe about that."--Fostering Together
