5.0 out of 5 stars
A missing piece of the puzzle for your adopted child.,
By A Customer
This review is from: When You Were Born in Korea: A Memory Book for Children Adopted from Korea (Hardcover)
As an adoptive parent of a Korean born child, I know firsthand that she had a life in Korea before ever becoming part of our family. Here is a way to fill in the missing pieces for her. Sooner or later your child will begin to ask questions. This book handles delicate issues in a gentle yet informative way. It's become our gift of choice to people we know who are new adoptive parents.

Excellent book for Korean-adoptive families!,
By A Customer
This review is from: When You Were Born in Korea: A Memory Book for Children Adopted from Korea (Hardcover)
My husband and I are parents to two wonderful children from Korea and this book is just absolutely top-notch. Although we were able to travel to Korea to receive both of our children and bring them home, still reading about much of what we experienced will enable us to better picture this for our children when they're old enough. The in-Korea agency our children came home through is the one featured in the book but I know the experience is much the same for any family adopting from Korea, re. of which in-Korea agency was used. You will be doing yourself, and more importantly your child, a favor by getting this!!

An excellent book on the experience of Korean adoption,
By A Customer
This review is from: When You Were Born in Korea: A Memory Book for Children Adopted from Korea (Hardcover)
As parents-to-be and new parents of a little boy from Korea, my wife and I found this book to be absolutely exceptional. It shows the whole process of an adoptee's early life, from the prenatal care of the birth mother through foster care and the journey to America. Not only is it great for us, we've also given it to Alex's grandparents to help them better understand where their grandson came from and what his life was like before he came here. I can't recommend this book too highly. I really can't. If you're even considering adopting from Korea, you need this book.
