Summary: What impressed you most about this book?
Review: "The author provides a touching glimpse into some of the most profound areas of life: candidly and clearly setting out not only the rough spots in her road to having a child, but the joyous moments, too. I was impressed not only with the personal aspect of the story, but with the political and social aspects, as well- the author is clearly a force to be reckoned with."

Summary: Many years and many tears
Review: A lot of people in this world will be able to relate very well with (Kari's) tragedies and triumphs. She spent many years and many tears to produce what I predict will be a Best-Seller! It is an inspiration to many others seeking to adopt.

Summary: An inspirational "must read"
Review: An inspirational " must read" for any adoptee, family trying to adopt, or birth mother. In journal style format addressed to her future adopted child, Palmer writes candidly about her experiences and feelings while becoming an unwilling expert on the world of adoption as she searches intently for a child. With raw emotion, and events that read like fiction, this book exposes the heart of every person waiting to become a parent through adoption and touches the heart of every person who reads it.

Summary: Miracle Of Adoption
Review: Kari's story is a testament to the miracle of adoption. So many things have to happen in order to find that special child. And when it finally happens, through good and bad, adoption leaves you with no doubt that there is a God, and that he has a plan for you. After reading this book, I was reminded of the blessings of my own two adopted sons and our journey to find them. My heart was with Kari all the way, ever mindful of the yearning and feelings of desperation in the quest for a baby. I encourage all adopting parents to read One Tiny Hope: A Journal To My Adopted Child, and learn from it.

Summary: A Wonderful Book!
Review: One Tiny Hope is an interesting chronicle of a woman's struggle to overcome both infertility and the adoption process. The journal format provides the reader with a candid look at very private issues surrounding one's ability to conceive or the frustrations surrounding adoption. The journal format also provides a "report" format for a very emotional situation, as a result, giving the book a more objective, narrative feel. While the book is valuable in that is shows the reader the value of perseverance, it is quite moving to think of the author's two children reading this book in twenty years and understanding the tremendous love that fueled their mother's efforts.

This is the most rewarding books I have read. I promise when you finish, your heart will smile because you have experienced the truth that miracles really can come true.
