Here's a Penny by Carolyn Haywood

4.0

This is a sweet, old-fashioned book that my two boys (ages 6 and 4) really enjoyed. It brings up the topic of adoption in a simple way that made it easy for my boys to understand. I loved how the mother explains to Penny that he is her really, truly boy. Such a beautiful part of the story that really touched me. Also, my boys laughed so hard when Penny and his friend wore the same Halloween costume. I thought this was a great, simple story that was quite enjoyable.
