2.0 out of 5 stars Like reading a research paper

4.0 out of 5 stars Very good book, August 10, 2010

But it is not boring at all and raises very important issues surrounding how White parents approach teaching about their adopted children's cultural heritage. It is a smart book that should be read by scholars as well as parents.
