5.0 out of 5 stars
Finally a book that has some focus on older kid adoption,
By Josie Parker (Eugene, OR.) - See all my reviews
This review is from: All about Adoption: How Families Are Made & How Kids Feel about It (Paperback)
I have been searching for a book to read to my 2 adopted daughters (ages 8 and 5) that talks about older child adoption and all of the emotions and thoughts that can happen for kids during the process. I am so glad to have found this book! Its a great read with kids who are getting ready for adoption or have gone through adoption in an easy to understand format. There are many story books on international adoption but very, very few on adoption of older kids from foster care. Its a must have for families, teachers, and therapists.

This review is from: All about Adoption: How Families Are Made & How Kids Feel about It (Paperback)
I am a therapist working with foster kids. I found this book to be very helpful to kids who are on the brink of being adopted. Children I've read this book with are attentive because they can identify with the information presented.

Better for domestic,

This review is from: All about Adoption: How Families Are Made & How Kids Feel about It (Paperback)
I think this book is more appropriate for domestic adoption. There were a few things that bothered me such as that "usually" adoptive parents know something about birth parents. Most people I know through adoption groups(international) know pretty close to nothing about the birth parents.
