From the back cover, "Joey is one of the thousands of children who live with a foster family. This is Joey's story. His distress about his troubled family, his anxieties over leaving home for strange food and a strange bed, are dealt with honestly and imaginatively, and he is shown gradually settling into a happy routine with kind and caring foster parents.

Published in association with the National Foster Care Association, Joey is designed to help all children understand more about fostering and to encourage them to ask questions. With its lively, humorous text and pictures, full of the kind of details children respond to, it is an appealing book in its own right and one that is much needed."
