One of my favorite picture books on adoption. It's refreshing to see non-white characters and a celebration of adoption and families in general without being explicit to either of these points. Hooray for the lovely illustrations and joyful depiction of family.

A sweet picture book about a couple who express through song their desire for a baby, and when the baby comes, they realize the baby is where home is. I thought this book was cute, but definitely more for parents than little ones.

Absolutely love this one. Read it to my adopted children. Love the usage of the words “forever home”, felt like this book was made for us!

We Sang You Home/Ka Kiweh Nikamostamatinan is a lyrical picture book, written in both English and Plains Cree.
Each page reveals simple illustrations of loving families celebrating their young child. The text is succinct, which will keep the attention of the youngest listeners, and families can make the decision to read it in English, Plains Cree, or in both languages. The text and illustrations together demonstrate how much children are treasured, and while the words are few, they're poignant: "As we gave you roots / you gave us wings" and "our everyday miracle" are glimpses of the simple beauty within.
I was provided a free digital advanced readers copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

While I am not a parent, even this book made me emotional imagining reading this to my own child. The poetic text is made even more beautiful with the gentle illustrations. A great book to gift to new parents

A sweet little story to welcome a baby home. It would be a very sweet gift for a new family. I also love that this book and others are being published with bilingual text.
