5.0 out of 5 stars I liked it!!, September 18, 2005
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: My Gifts from India (Paperback)
I just read Frances Abbott's, My Gifts From India. I enjoyed the read and I found it particularly informative when discussing the challenges of adopting from India. In the begining of the book, the author talked about her abusive childhood, which is really not the important part of the story. So just skim this part and get to the real story, about a mother's determination to bring her child home from a state sponsored orphanage in India. Unlike the private orphanges, this orphanage was more like a "concentration camp". June Spearing, RN
(mother of a 10 year old adopted form India in 2002)

5.0 out of 5 stars A MUST READ........................, January 24, 2004

This review is from: My Gifts from India (Paperback)
This writer is amazing. Her story is real and well written. But the message it sends is important to everyone who inhabits the earth - that what happens to one human being affects all human beings. She knows first hand what abuse and neglect mean to a child, but her journey to rise above it and become an advocate for these children all over the world will forever affect how you think about this subject. After reading this wonderful story in some small way you may never be the same again. Thank you Fran Abbott for sharing your pain and triumphs so thoughtfully.

5.0 out of 5 stars INSPIRING!!, November 16, 2003
By 
"lm_kaye" (Sherman Oaks, CA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: My Gifts from India (Paperback)
This book will inspire you to the core! I could not put the book down-it was an absolute page turner. It is not everyday you see someone put into action their beliefs and dreams and make their vision a reality to share with the rest of the world.
This book will definitely change your view on the contraversial issue of adoption, and especially, the view of what makes us a family in todays world.
