Reviews: "I read a chapter a day to my second grade class and they were completely enthralled by Fiona's story. The day of the final reading there were few dry eyes as we finished the book. My students were eager to find out if there would be a Fiona sequel! This book touches the heart and brings to light the emotional roller coaster foster kids ride every day. A great book for deep classroom discussion." Chris Kawchak, Teacher "Fiona, Forever? is a lively, heartwarming tale of a girl growing up in foster care, and her hearts desire to find a family.
