Summary: You Must Buy This Book
Review: This book is a must-have for people adopting from China. My husband and I are in the long waiting portion of the process. The chapters about waiting have been so helpful. There is so much useful information in this book from waiting to packing to the challenges of raising a child adopted from China. I feel so much more informed about what is in store for us.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A Must-Read For Anyone Touched by an Adoption from China
Review: This is a marvelous compendium of information about adopting from China. It covers all aspects of the experience and is divided into appropriate subject sections so you can find things easily. It belongs in the reference library of every adoptive parent, grandparent, and person touched by an adoption from China.

The essays and occasional poem express all the emotions that accompany adoption from China as well as the nitty-gritty of dealing with packing, being a new parent, medical concerns, and more.

Amy Klatzkin is a brilliant editor who understands the adoption experience firsthand. She has not sugarcoated the experience, but given us the wonders, the complexities, and the sorrows here. Therefore, it is a great collection for those considering adoption as well as those who have already adopted.

This book makes a wonderful gift for adoptive families and their friends. I bought copies for everyone in my extended family. It will help them understand all the issues, and the joys and sorrows, of the adoption experience. Don't miss it!
