My friend is adopted. What does that mean?

The portrait of a "traditional" household—with a mom and dad raising two biological kids under one roof—is just one of many in an expansive gallery that also portrays families with single parents, same sex parents, foster and adopted children, grandparents as guardians, step-siblings, and more. In this Raising Curious Learners episode, our hosts add to a larger conversation happening at Britannica for Parents: how do we better represent different types of families? They are joined by Juliet C. Bond, social worker and co-author of the award-winning "Jazzy's Quest" series, which features adoptees as main characters plus family structures and real life situations not often covered in children's literature.
