Ten-year-old Charlie has always known she was adopted. But when a DNA test turns up a close match two hours away, knowing where she comes from suddenly feels possible.
With a lot of questions, a little courage, and a houseplant she insists on bringing along, Charlie gets on a bus by herself and goes looking for answers. What she finds is a flower shop, a woman with her exact hair, and a whole family who have been there the entire time.
She also finds out that answers have a way of arriving with more questions attached — and that finding more family doesn’t mean losing the family she already has.
Match Found is a warm, funny, heartfelt middle-grade novel about identity, belonging, and the many ways a family can grow.
