Your Mom Is So Nice (Nia's Family, Band 3) - Hardcover

Inhaltsangabe

Nia never expected to like her stepsisters' mother.

When Zara climbs a fence and ends up needing stitches, the whole family piles into the emergency room. Sitting in that waiting area is Ms. Jackie, Ada and Zara's mom. Nia has heard her name, but she has never met her. She has no idea what this woman is supposed to be to her.

What happens over the next few hours surprises Nia. Ms. Jackie is warm. She talks to Nia like she matters. By the time the family heads home, Nia is carrying a thought she never saw coming: Your mom is so nice.

Your Mom Is So Nice is the third book in the Nia's Family Adventures series, written for children living the blended family life and for the grown-ups raising them. Children in blended families often absorb the idea that loving one household means betraying another. They watch for tension between the adults. They learn to pick sides before anyone asks them to. This book gently lifts that weight off their shoulders.

Through Nia's eyes, young readers see what becomes possible when adults put children ahead of their own history. They see co-parenting that actually works. They see that a stepparent's ex does not have to be the enemy, that kindness can arrive from a direction nobody expected, and that there is always room for one more adult who genuinely cares about them.

Ideal for readers ages 6 to 10, Your Mom Is So Nice works beautifully as a bedtime read-aloud, a classroom text for conversations about family structures, and a resource for counselors, therapists, and social workers supporting children through family transitions. Parents, stepparents, teachers, and caregivers will find it a natural doorway into conversations that are often hard to start.

Themes include blended families, stepfamilies, co-parenting, kindness, empathy, sibling relationships, belonging, emotional intelligence, and family transitions.

The Nia's Family Adventures series follows one girl as her family grows in ways she did not choose and did not expect. Each book meets a real feeling honestly and leaves children with language for what they are carrying.
