Somebody Cares explores the feelings and thoughts many kids have when they've had to look out for themselves or be alone much of the time.

A useful book to read with a caring adult--such as a parent, foster parent, kinship parent, or therapist--Somebody Cares reassures children who have experienced neglect that they are not to blame for what happened in their family and that they can feel good about themselves for many reasons. It takes time for kids to get used to changes in their family or living situation, even when they are good changes. This book will help kids learn some ways to feel safer, more relaxed, and more confident.
