Delly Duck SIBLING GROUP EDITION: Why Some Children Cannot Stay With Their Birth Families: A foster care and adoption story book for children, to … Kinship Care and Special…
In response to popular demand, Holly Marlow has created this special sibling/twin edition of her multi-award winning book, Delly Duck.When Delly Duck lays two eggs, she is excited for them to hatch. But she doesn’t really know how to keep eggs safe, or how to look after the ducklings when they hatch. See how a concerned goose tries to help Delly to learn how to care for the ducklings, in this sensitively-written adoption story.
Delly Duck: Why A Little Chick Couldn’t Stay With His Birth Mother and this special siblings/twins edition are intended to help support and stimulate discussion around some of the questions an adopted or fostered child (or another child trying to understand adoption) may have. The story can be used to help answer difficult and emotive questions, such as “Why can’t I live with my birth mother?” and “Why didn’t someone just teach her how to parent me safely?”
No two adoption stories are the same, so symbolism has been used that is open to appropriate interpretation by the parent, kinship carer, social worker, play therapist, teacher or other adult reading this story with a child. The beautifully-illustrated story includes animal characters that may reflect common behaviours and responsibilities of several of the key people involved in an adoption process. Delly is a likeable duck, who sadly makes some poor choices and struggles to care for her ducklings in a consistently safe way.
The book includes a helpful guide to the symbolism, with suggestions as to how the various metaphors can be used to support therapeutic life story work and answer questions about the challenges faced by a child’s birth parents, such as memory or concentration problems, addiction and/or poor or inconsistent role models during their own childhoods.
Above all, it portrays that all adults involved want the best for adopted children, and that they are so very loved.Delly Duck is a popular story with kinship (special guardianship) families and connected carers, particularly when used alongside Marlow’s award-winning bestseller, Room in the Nest. It will appeal to readers of The Blanket Bears, The Invisible String, and the works of Sarah Naish and Todd Parr.

From the author of award-winning children’s story books, Delly Duck and Room in the Nest, comes another sensitively-crafted story featuring a mixture of familiar and new characters.An adoption ceremony – often referred to as a Celebration Hearing, Pronouncement Hearing or Adoption Visit – can be a helpful tool to support therapeutic life story work and to help adopted children to understand what happened when a judge made important decisions about their lives.
This story is designed to show children what to expect at their adoption ceremony and to reassure them that the decision has already been made and will not change at the ceremony. It may be used to explain the purpose of the Celebration Hearing to a child’s friends and classmates, and also serves as a thoughtful gift to help a child to understand and process the ceremony after the fact.This story is suitable for adoption from foster care, not private adoption.
Praise for Room in the Nest
“…This magnificent story shows sensitivity to the topic and complicated feelings surrounding foster care. She explains how the Caring Goose always tries to help the parents out first and give them guidance and that she is not trying to rip families apart but instead shows compassion and works to try and keep families together. Still, sometimes that is not always best for the children. Room in the Nest is a heartwarming picture book that teaches children about foster care, foster placements, long-term fostering, kinship care, reunification, adoption, and a broad look at family court. This is a beautiful story to share with children that have to go through this process to help ease their fears and for other children to understand what happens if someone they know goes into foster care. This honest and beautiful look at the system is a much-needed resource for families, teachers, social workers, and anyone working with troubled families.” – Literary Titan
“…Holly has taken a complex and emotionally charged concept and presented it in a way that children will appreciate and understand…” – Readers’ Favorite
“…Room in the Nest” is a great tool to use for life story work to start discussions about foster carers. It’s also a great book for all children to read, to help them understand why some children need to stay with foster carers sometimes for a short period of time, sometimes for much longer.” – We Made A Wish adoption magazine

Daisy’s Dragons: a story about feelings
A delightful picture book which explores the importance of emotions.WARNING! CONTAINS DRAGONS!
Nobody but Daisy can see her dragons. Usually, they all get along in their own wonderful chaotic way, but Daisy’s dragons aren’t like ordinary dragons; Daisy’s dragons are her feelings.
So when Daisy has a very tricky day, suddenly all is not harmonious among the dragons. Sad keeps growing and growing, Angry is breathing fire at everyone and everything he sees, while Scared’s screaming is driving everybody to distraction. Now some of Daisy’s dragons feel bad. And Daisy doesn’t want bad dragons.
But Daisy soon discovers that without Angry, Sad and Scared, her other dragons are nowhere to be seen either. Could it be that to feel truly happy, calm and brave, Daisy needs all of her dragons together?
Daisy’s Dragons is a mindful metaphor that helps children understand the importance of all their emotions – even the negative ones. It addresses the necessity of difficult feelings and celebrates their capacity for self-preservation, self-esteem and reflection. After all, you can’t be brave if you’re not frightened first.
Perfect for fans of THE COLOUR MONSTER.

It is never too early to start teaching children self-defense, and one important lesson they can learn is to say no when they are touched inappropriately. This is a lesson in personal protection and can be taught to children as young as four years old. It’s important to teach them this while they are young, as it is easy to forget these lessons as a child grows older. It’s best to teach this lesson when a child is being touched by someone they know and trust so that they don’t feel threatened. The lesson is to remind them that they can say no and that they don’t have to be afraid. This is the best way to teach them how to defend themselves against bigger threats and will give them the confidence they need to stand up for themselves.
Keep your child safe and help them learn to stand up for themselves with Where Hands Go.
