Who out there is a fan of the Fun with Dick and Shane series? I have always been a little frustrated that we have never been told the story of how Dick, Shane and Gillian became a triad. We know the generalities, but the details are like a closely guarded secret. Well, if you need that itch scratched, I recommend The Foster Family. It's not humorous, but it does feature an established couple bringing in a 'stray'. It features domestic discipline, but a very mild dose. Not so mild is the hurt/comfort, lots of that all around. In the end, it was a nice family story and a nice self realization story. I liked it.
