Callum Kindly is a kind and caring boy, who lives alone with his mum. That is until Katie Careful comes to stay with them who Callum thinks is a very weird child!

Katie manages to get in the way whenever Callum wants to speak to his mum or have snuggle time. She cries and sulks on his birthday and she steals his toy car. Luckily, his mum can explain to him why Katie acts differently.

Written by an adoptive mum and her daughter, this is a story that explains what it’s like for children aged 3-10 living with foster or adopted children, or with new children in the family.
