About

A tender and reassuring story that helps young children understand adoption through the journey of two little bears searching for a place to call home. 

When two young bears find themselves alone and out in the cold, they begin an emotional journey that will eventually lead them to a loving forever family. Along the way, they experience uncertainty, fear, kindness, hope, and the comfort of discovering people who are there to care for them. 

Written by adoptive parent Samuel Langley-Swain and beautifully illustrated by Ashlee Spink, The Blanket Bears gently introduces children to the adoption process from a child’s perspective. Rather than focusing only on joining a new family, the story acknowledges the complicated feelings and experiences that can be part of the journey while offering warmth, reassurance, and hope. 

Sensitive and accessible, this heartfelt picture book is an excellent resource for adoptive and foster families, schools, caregivers, and professionals looking for an age-appropriate way to begin conversations about adoption, belonging, and the many different ways families come together.
