I bought the International Adoption Travel Journal in 1998 for our first adoption and couldn't believe that I actually wrote in it!!! The easy guidance that the journal provided and those long hours in a hotel room with a sleeping toddler made writing delightful. What a thrilling memoir to bring out year after year and relive the memories! What a treasure it will be for our daughter!

We've just been referred our second daughter. This is one of the first items on my list of "must haves" for the trip.

This is a great little journal if you are planning an oversea's adoption...It will help you to prepare a great memento for your new baby when she/he is older. The journal has places for info on your new arrival, itineraries, daily travel journel, destinations, and lots more... I highly recommend it.

I have recommended this book to so many people! I carried it with me to China when we adopted our daughter. Everyone says that you'll forget so many details later -- even though it seems as if you could never forget an instant of such an event. But you do forget. Or you're so overwhelmed you don't know what to write. Or . . .

This journal is an easy size for packing for travel. It gives good sentence stems to prompt journaling -- without being too prescriptive (I don't like being bossed around by books). It is nicely organized into sections to do with the trip, the places, arriving home, etc.

At least 3 of us in my travel group were carrying this journal. If you're going to make an international trip to adopt, you need this book. Get it!
