Adoption

A good book for friends and family adopting

I just read IN ON IT and thought I would recommend it to those waiting to adopt. I don't have any affiliation with this book, but it has some great information for friends and families. I even wrote a blog post about one of the topics about protecting your child's privacy. https://twocatsandacradle.blogspot.com/2012/06/thats-none-of-your-beeswax.html

  • I think that the book looks great!

    This seems a bit spammy to me though, because you've never posted before this, and there is a link to your fundraising efforts in your blog, which you linked. IDK. Maybe I am just being sensitive.

  • Just finished reading that also! I got a copy for both sets of grandparents. Seems like it helps friends/relatives to see where we are coming from and make them feel special and included at the same time. Good book! Thanks for sharing :-)

  • It really is a great book. I met the author at a trade show and she was fantastic to talk to. I only wish she had written it a few years earlier so we could have given it to our families before we adopted. :-)
