Books for children to explain adoption

What books would people reccommend people use to help children in the extended family understand adoption. We have previously fostered and our neices and nephews have just been told that we were looking after them while their parents learnt how to look after them and keep them safe. These babies have eventually returned to them. We are now moving towards taking on an adoptive placement and we realise we have a bit of work to do with our neices and nephews in helping hem understand the permanency with these children and why they will not be returning home. Any recommendations of books would be appreciated!

What do we think about adoption. It's published by BAAF and you can get it on Amazon.
We gave copies to our neices and nephews before we adopted and we've also given copies to our children's school.
