A story about the new foster kid at school that just needed a friend.

"A refreshingly, spirit lifting story of love, acceptance, and friendship. Arlo is both lovely in appearance as well as personal character. Each page is full of vibrant color... and hope!"

"I truly enjoyed reading this book, and feel it is not only an important book to read for children in the foster care system but also for all kinds of children who are trying to understand diversity in a world where we are surrounded by foster children. A must read. Highly recommend."

"ARLO HELPS A FRIEND is a very sweet inspiring book and easy to read and understand!! A great book for a parent to read to their children or for older children to read themselves!! The art work is fantastic and when I read the book I felt like I had a new friend, Arlo!"

Arlo and His Friends

Arlo

A fluffy, happy little creature who loves football, superheroes, and taking naps. He’s a friend to everyone and loves to make everyone feel welcome. He and his older sister, Aspen, were adopted by their Momma and live as one happy family.

Lucia

Lucia is new to Arlo’s school having just entered the foster care system. She’s a sweet girl who likes airplanes, flowers, and baseball, but she has become shy and has been getting into some trouble recently.

Addy

Arlo’s neighbor, a pink creature who is very talented at creating art. She was Arlo’s first friend and treated him with kindness. She has to wear glasses, but she doesn’t mind, because they look very cute!

Aspen

Arlo’s older sister, a gray and green creature who enjoys science and playing games. She looked out for Arlo before she and her brother were adopted by their Momma. She loves her family and her new home!
