About
This story was written with the intention to engage young readers with positive emotions associated with adoption. The act of adoption may be considered a platform for bringing additional happiness and love into a family structure. JoJo, Mom, Dad, and Buddy demonstrate that adoption is about love and acceptance experienced though choosing members to join a family. It is an act of love displayed by parents and children alike. While adopted children feel loved, they may seek understanding to conceptualize the idea of adoption. Allowing JoJo to adopt a pet provides the young character the opportunity to give a pet the same love and acceptance JoJo receives in their family. We are all unique individuals who desire being a part of a household that fills us with happiness and love. We hope you find this story enjoyable, and that it helps broaden the lens through which we view families through diversity, equity, and inclusion.
