It’s been a whole year since our book was published!
In celebration of our book’s one-year anniversary, we’re excited to partner with Elizabeth Mundt, aka The Kid Lit Mama. If you don't follow her, you should. I value and respect her children's book recommendations, which are always thoughtful, inclusive, and intelligent.
Elizabeth has produced a beautiful Instagram reel and Substack essay about Marra’s Star, featuring her trademark insights into our little story. I love these points she makes:
- The book isn't just for kids, and it resonates not just with adoptive parents, but any parents who have waited and hoped for a child, whatever their journeys
- The story honors both birth mothers and adoptive mothers
- The book is a great way to introduce kids to different ways families are formed
- The art is stunning!
If you feel so moved, please share this reel and this essay with people who would appreciate them. Forwarding this email is an easy way to do that!

Thanks for your support!
