Description

Adoption is a life-long process that brings both joy and sorrow to those whose lives have been forever changed through its experience. The personal and emotional stories related in this work realistically illustrate both the positive and negative aspects of adoption. The characters and events of each story address many of the unique situations presented by adoption. This inclusive and honest portrayal of adoption includes stories of children of all ages, in a variety of situations, with different needs and challenges, and the stories of the families and individuals who adopt them for reason as numerous and varied as the children themselves. The stories also encompass the dedicated professionals who work in adoption to support the children and families involved in all stages of the journey.
