One Marble a Day

Help children to understand the emotional challenges of the adoption process.

Carl has not always lived where he lives now and had lots of super sticky stuck days when he was waiting for his new family. He still has days when his head is so full of muddles that he just wants to run, jump or hide. What he really wants to know is how long will he be staying. A reassuring story for children who have been placed for adoption or who are waiting for a permanent family.

The emotions and experiences Carl faces will be familiar to both children and carers. Practical activities within the story can be used by families, schools and professionals who may be supporting children with their own ‘super sticky stuck days’.
