From Library Journal
Co-founders and co-directors of the Manhattan-based Center for Adoptive Families, the authors have compiled a "Dr. Spock" for adoptive parents, a guide that discusses the different developmental stages of children from year one through late adolescence, with careful attention to the complications adopted children often experience. Positive and easy to read, this how-to manual manages to be comprehensive, offering special chapters on transracial and single-parent adoptions and adoptions of older and foreign-born children. There are end-of-chapter questions and answers and a list of resources keyed to parents of children with disabilities. Recommended for all public library collections.
