Customer Reviews

Great Resource, so incredibly well-done

I've already bought several copies for people I know who are considering adoption. It's well-researched, well-organized and full of great stories - real stories. I'm an adoptive mother already and still it touched me deeply. Adoption can be a daunting subject, but this book puts all the questions, all the debates, all the options in one place. Use this book. Buy it for friends. Trust it.

Great Starter Book on Adoption

This is a great starter book on adoption and adoptive parenting. It can be rounded out by several more adoption books, but it gives a great overview and perspective on the adoption journey.

Number one adoption book on Amazon, Oct. 2009

We have been through the adoption process twice already, so we can't speak about how useful this book is for the new parent researching adoption. We do like how the book is organized, and we like the positive and encouraging language (some adoptin books are surprisingly negative and full of warnings). We also like that our daughter's picture is featured in the book! Yes, we are biased in rating this book. Our family is a testament to the joyful blessing of adoption. You can adopt too!
