Description
"Ultimately, the book is as much a model for foster parents as it is a story to provide validation of foster children's experiences . . . . Gentle and wise―especially as a read for foster parents."―Kirkus ReviewsCalvin is in foster care, and he wants to trust someone, anyone, but is afraid to open his heart. He has lived in a lot of houses, but he still hasn't found his home. When he moves in with Maggie, she shows him respect, offers him kindness, and makes him see things in himself that he's never noticed before. Maybe this isn't just another house, maybe this is a place Calvin can call home, for a while.

In "Home For A While," I found it easy to empathize with Calvin's apprehensions, frustrations, and anger as he transitioned to his next foster home.What truly resonated with me was Maggie's response to each of Calvin's emotional outbursts. Rather than reacting with anger, Maggie approached Calvin with grace, guiding him to navigate his negative emotions in more constructive ways.Maggie also demonstrated a remarkable respect for Calvin's personal boundaries. She refrained from imposing unwanted gestures of affection, such as a goodnight hug, while consistently extending the offer until Calvin felt comfortable enough to embrace it on his own terms.Calvin required both time and acceptance to acclimate to his new environment, and Maggie made certain he received both in abundance.Maggie's daily affirmations of Calvin's positive behavior had an incredibly uplifting effect. These gestures played a significant role in helping Calvin establish a sense of belonging within Maggie's home, even though it was a temporary arrangement.In essence, "Home For A While" beautifully portrays the delicate yet profound journey of Calvin as he navigates the challenges of a new foster home. The dynamic between Calvin and Maggie serves as a heartwarming reminder of the power of compassion, understanding, and patience in the face of adversity. Through Maggie's exceptional ability to provide emotional support and space for growth, Calvin's transformation from uncertainty to a sense of belonging is truly inspiring. This narrative stands as a testament to the impact that even a temporary placement can have on a young individual's life, emphasizing the significance of empathy and positive reinforcement. "Home For A While" is a touching exploration of human connection and the potential for healing through genuine care and kindness.
