  • I am not much help, but there is a great adoption book that was funded through Kickstarter, called A Gift for Little Tree that I love! I am not sure if it has been published yet though.

  • The Gift of Little Tree won't be published until November/December. You can contact the author via facebook and she'll tell you exactly how to get a copy of the book. It is an absolutely incredible book and fosters the triad of adoption!

  • Tell me Again.  I can't read this to my son without crying. I also made an adoption book for him.  It's his adoption story and I got it made into a hard cover book.  it's full of pictures and tells his story.  It's really quite lovely if I do say so myself :)  He asks to read it with me now and again.  I wrote it in a way that is clear and straightforward and honest, but not babyish, if that makes sense?
