5.0 out of 5 stars Exellent!, August 30, 2003

This review is from: The Adoption Eclipse (Paperback)

This is a wonderful book. It has everything. It is both entertaining and informative. Being an adopted person myself, I never knew what my parents (both sets) actually went through. This book made me laugh and cry and provided the useful information we need to help us decide if we want to adopt or not. I highly reccomend this book to everyone!

This review is from: The Adoption Eclipse (Paperback)

The Adoption Eclipse tells a story of the ups and downs of the adoption process. It gives a glimpse into the emotional and technical factors that go into successfully starting a family in this way. The characters and situations are believable, and the message is positive but realistic.

A very readable book that also contains good references for those who want to start their own adoption process. I read it the first time in under an hour.

For an effective insight into how adoption affects your life, read this book.
