How to Raise an Adopted Child: A Guide to Help Your Child Flourish from Infancy Through Adolescence

Rating:
Summary: this book was very untruthful
Review: As a teenage adoptee, I feel that this book over emphasized the negative sides of adoption. Many of the issues presented in this book do exist, but in very few situations. The authors of this book make adoption and the effects after adoption sound very negative, while many adoptive children and families live very normal lives, just as families who share blood.

It gives excellent examples of how to present information and how to address issues specific to adopted children. Also, breaks down the specific issues by age. Great compendium of information and a guide to raising a special child.
