From School Library Journal
Gr 9 Up—Families come in many varieties, and this collection of short stories explores the theme of adoption. Well-known YA authors, including Adi Alsaid, Mindy McGinnis, C.J. Redwine, and William Ritter, and many lesser-known authors across a variety of genres share stories that range from the fantastical to gritty, but all will touch readers' hearts (and cause a few to shed some tears). Each entry fits the theme of the collection well and is strong enough to stand alone. Characters are developed as well as they can be in just a few pages. While representing a variety of genres and authors, the language and writing style in each tale is strong, and the pieces have touching and heartrending conclusions. Some of the selections touch upon sensitive topics, such as child abuse, and others contain graphic language, but these elements don't affect the overall quality of the narratives. VERDICT Recommended for high school libraries.—Terri Lent, Patrick Henry High School, Ashland, VA
