Customer Reviews

Warm, funny, sweet story

This book had our 4-6 year old children laughing out loud - and we as parents enjoyed it too. As adoptive parents, we were a little concerned at the beginning as to the path the book would take as Dulcie sets out to find her "real family", but we were very pleased with the story and the way in which Dulcie comes to truly appreciate the family that she has. Very funny, both in word and picture, and very sweet.
