Book Synopsis



Adele is a small rat with a big wish she just wants someone to love her.

Every day she watches families walk past her cage, always hoping today will be the day someone says "Hi" just to her. When an unfamiliar voice finally speaks to Adele, everything changes.

This heartwarming, beautifully illustrated story celebrates:

✔ Compassion and kindness toward animals

✔ The joy of adopting rescued pets

✔ Understanding and empathy for often-overlooked creatures

✔ The special bond that forms when you choose love

Perfect for young readers, animal lovers, classrooms, and families, Adopting Adele gently teaches children the value of adoption and gives a voice to a tiny hero who simply wants to belong.

With whimsical illustrations by April Pedersen and a touching narrative by Heather Leughmyer, this book inspires kindness and reminds us that every animal no matter how small deserves a chance at a happy home.

A wonderful read-aloud for ages 3-8.
