This was a beautiful story of Ada who is adopted and how she incorporated her family into a family tree project. I love how inclusive this book was and that it showed families of all types and not just the typical "nuclear family". This book would be a great resource for teachers and students before the family tree project was introduced. It make take some of the anxiety out of the project.

My Family Tree tells the tale of non-traditional families and what someone's family tree could look like if their family has taken a more indirect route. A little girl, Ada, who has lived in foster care, has a half-sister, foster brothers, and adoptive parents is tasked with creating a family tree for school. She visits family and friends to get help with her project and to gain a new perspective on how she should portray her family and relationships. The artwork is cute and simple. A wonderful story to help kids learn to appreciate non-traditional families.
