When Kids Have Grandparents As Parents

This fills a genuine gap — kinship-care families rarely see themselves in picture books, and the warm, non-stigmatizing framing is exactly what a child in that situation needs to hear. A Florida Authors and Publishers gold medal is modest but real recognition. The book wisely avoids dwelling on why the grandparents are raising the child, which keeps the focus affirming; some children may need a follow-up conversation to fill that gap.
