A Kindle for Ethan who loves to read!

Posted Sep 18, 2017
Ethan has found a new love for reading. He didn't know that books can be read on a tablet until he recently saw a commercial. Ever since, he has been asking for a tablet so he can buy books to read on it!

Ethan is 17 years old and lives in TX

Ethan is a very handsome and talented young boy. He likes to play video games, play with his legos and build origami. Ethan has been in foster care for almost three years. He is still trying to cope with the fact that he is still in care. His adoptive placement broke down about a year ago and he was placed back into a foster home. Ethan cried for two weeks straight because he couldn't understand why "his family" was giving him away. His foster parents helped with his healing but later Ethan started to become very aggressive and was moved into a boys group home. He is now in a much better place with the fact that he is still in care. On the up side, he is living with his younger brother and gets to visit with his sister often. He prays one day to be adopted along with his siblings into a loving home.
