Rating: Summary: Best book on adoption stories Review: Felt this book was a wonderful way for people to hear about the adoption stories that don't go wrong. Since I am one of the birthmother's in these stroies, it was important for me to see some representation that didn't make all birthparents out to be big monsters. Some are very caring individuals who only want what's best for their child. And I am one of those. Love you Peggy. Marie
Rating: Summary: Child of My Heart... MY Cardio-Child Review: I found this book in the first months after adopting our infant son. I already had lots of heady academic references to "help" us through the whole adoption process, but this proved to be the one I kept on hand in those busy, hectic first days of parenthood. When I was just too tired to read anything of real substance, I could chew on a couple of these uplifting stories and feel so reaffirmed about our decision and our new life. Even on the most exhausting of days, I found it difficult to put this book down and dreaded the inevitable moment when I knew I would finish it.
Rating: Summary: Warm and Fuzzy, Not too heavy Review: This book is full of very short, most just a page or a little more, happy adoption stories. After reading each little story I felt like, "Is that it?" I really wanted to know more. If you're looking for easy-light reading that will make you feel good, then this is the book for you. If you are interested in more indepth stories or issues surrounding adoption, then this book will probably disapoint you.

Rating: Summary: Child of My Heart... MY Cardio-Child Review: This is a wonderful book. I had the pleasure of "meeting" one of the submitters in this book, Dayna, on-line while we both were waiting to travel to China to bring our Cardio-daughters home, her Joy & my Hope. Dayna has recently been bless with a Bio-child who she has named Faith.There are many names that you will recognize in this book, including Magic Johnson, Mia Farrow, and many more from AOL's Adoption Forum, and from the China Adoption listserves: APC & PAC. These stories will bring a tear to your eye and a smile to your heart - a heart that carried our children, a heart that carried my Cardio-child Hope.
