We Don’t Match—But We Belong
This book is for any family that looks a little different and for any child who has ever wondered why. It’s also for anyone who wants to open a conversation about difference—and about belonging anyway. Some moments may spark questions. Here are a few answers, ready when you need them.
What does “belong” mean?
It means this is your place and these are your people. You're exactly where you're supposed to be.
Is different okay?
Yes! Different is not just okay, it's something to be proud of. That's what this whole book is about.
What's a birth mom?
A birth mom is who a child was born to. Some children are raised by a different family than the one they were born into. Both are real. Both matter. And whatever your family looks like—you belong.

The moment your child wonders if different is okay

We Don’t Match—But We Belong is a warm, rhyming read-aloud for any child who's ever wondered if being different is okay, and for the grown-ups who love them.
“We don't match—but we belong. That’s what makes our family strong.”
