Wanted. A Story on Adoption (en Inglés) - Susan Calder -Heaps

What makes a family... love or biology?

Wanted: Nature/Nurture - A Story on Adoption is a heartfelt and beautifully illustrated children's book that gently explores one of life's most meaningful questions through the eyes of love, connection, and belonging.

Follow Maggie and her family as they prepare to welcome a new baby into their lives. Though the journey begins with anticipation and curiosity, it quickly blossoms into something deeper-a powerful bond that proves love is not defined by how a child arrives, but by how deeply they are embraced.

Through simple storytelling and rich symbolism like the "family tree," "roots," and the magical idea of a superbond, this story helps young readers understand that families grow in many different ways-but love is always at the center.

This book is perfect for:

• Children learning about adoption

• Families welcoming an adopted child

• Parents looking for a gentle way to explain belonging and identity

• Classrooms encouraging empathy, love, and understanding

With warmth, wisdom, and a nurturing tone, this story reassures every child of one powerful truth:

You are wanted. You are loved. You belong.
