A Man and His Mother: An Adopted Son's Search

Summary: an honest and heartfelt read
Review: Green recounts his story of growing up knowing he was adopted. It's a touching story with emotional themes and a lot of fun football anecdotes. An interesting read for anyone involved with a domestic adoption. It's not as applicable to international adoption.

Summary: Great insight into life as an adopted male adult
Review: I am an adopted man a few years older than Tim Green. I searched for and found my birth family about two years ago. I found Tim's book to be eminently readable. In fact, I could not put it down. I was moved from cover to cover. I think any reader would be touched by this book, and I think it's a must for any adopted person who has searched or is considering a search. My immediate reaction was to try to find a way to thank Tim Green for writing this book.

Review: I picked this up in the library, I am an adoptee, so I was curious.
I felt as though I was on the same page as Mr. Green a few times during his story, understood where he was coming from.
He seems to be a very thoughtful and honest man, and to open up about something that has touched his life so intimately I think took great courage. I applaude him.
Its a good story, I would read it again.

Summary: TRUTHFUL, HONEST & TEARFUL
Review: I, too, am adopted, so I read this book with great interest. Green's story is similar to mine so I was very engrossed in finding out what happened in his search. I welled-up with tears in many sections of the book reliving my thoughts, reunions and fears. Very personal story, but very personably written. A must for all who are adopted! You will understand, and have compassion for, many of Green's emotions.
