The Vanderbeekers Lost and Found Reviews

4.5
“This was a read aloud with my 7 and 9 year old boys. Each book is just as delightful as the last. I was in tears multiple times and my boys giggle through every chapter. These books do such a good job of skimming heavy topics at an age appropriate level and showing what it looks like to be family to those around you.”
