(2) 4-6 Foster kids Flora, eleven (but in fourth grade), and younger brother Julian have finally found a "forever" family in adoptive mother Emily, her husband Jon, and Jon's sixth-grade daughter Elena. When Emily announces she's having a baby, Flora and Julian worry about their security in the family. The members of this multiracial family and the people around them are all complex and well-rounded characters.
