My Family is Forever
by Nancy Carlson
This little girl tells about her family and how she came to be adopted and become part of her family. She sees how other children look like their parents, but although she knows she looks different than her parents, she knows she is loved. Many other families do not always look alike, too. She does all kinds of things, like play catch, cook, and dance with her parents. She sometimes wonders about her birth parents, but hopes they know they know they gave her to a loving family. No matter what happens, she knows that her family will always be there, because “families are forever.”
Part of Me
by Kimberly Willis Holt
This book goes over four generations of one family and how they are affected by one another and books. The story begins with Rose’s story. After her father leaves her family, her mother is forced to move them from their home outside Amarillo back to her home town of Houma, Louisiana. Rose soon gets a job as the bookmobile driver and goes with the librarian delivering books over the area. Then second story is about her son, Merle Henry. Merle Henry really enjoys trapping with his dog, Blue. His mother still has them go to meet the bookmobile every week, and the family reads a lot. Merle Henry is much more interested in trapping, though. The third story is about Merle Henry’s daughter, Annabeth. Annabeth and her brother, Ryan, are staying with their grandmother Rose while their father is looking for work. Annabeth is glad that she will be in a new school and really wants to be popular, and she is working on how to become popular while staying with her grandmother. Rose also takes her grandchildren with her to the bookmobile every week. When she gets back to school, she does not get the popularity that she wanted, but she learns to stand up for herself. The final story is about Annabeth’s son, Kyle. Kyle is more interested in rock music than getting a summer job like his father wants. Then Kyle gets a job helping out in skits at the library. He is still more interested in his music than reading, but one day he picks up Harry Potter, and finds he really enjoys it. Then Rose finds out that an editor had read an article she had submitted to a magazine and wants her to write about her life. Then on the day they celebrate her new book, her family has her deliver the books on the bookmobile to the area libraries.
