“Will I live with my parents again? Will I stay with my foster parents forever?” For children in foster care, the answer to many questions is often "maybe." Maybe Days addresses the questions, feelings, and concerns these children most often face.

This children's book celebrates diverse family structures through rhythmic, humorous text and illustrations of silly animal families. It highlights various setups—two dads, single parents, grandparents, or adopted children—emphasizing that love makes a family, regardless of size or makeup.

The core message of this book is that an invisible thread of love connects people, even when apart, offering comfort and reassurance that they’re never truly alone. It explores separation, loss, and connection in a creative way that helps children understand their feelings and fosters belonging despite distance.

Childcare looks different from family to family. Whether there’s one caregiver, or two, or four—whether it’s a mommy, a grandpa, or a sitter—the most important thing for a child to know is that they are loved. This sweet board book highlights different kinds of caregivers, as well as the diversity among them.

Although not specifically for children in foster care, this book is a valuable resource because it celebrates family diversity and teaches that love is what matters most. Its positive, colorful portrayal of families—like those with two moms, two dads, or single parents—can help foster children understand and embrace their own situations.

This book comforts toddlers and preschoolers in foster care by reassuring them they are safe and loved. As a foster parent to ten and a social worker, Somers brings authenticity and insight into children’s emotional needs and system challenges.

Highlights include brain hemisphere integration, using connection and redirection for development, mindfulness for emotional regulation, and applying CBT with your child.

This book offers TBRI-based, trauma-informed strategies to help parents build trust, emotional safety, and connection while supporting fear reduction, gentle authority, sensory needs, and social skills.
