Reviews for The Story of My Open Adoption

In reading this book to their child, adoptive parents are reminded to orient on their child's journey and their child's perspective. I'm so glad that finally there is such a book in the children's adoption literature landscape. --Lori Holden, author of The Open-Hearted Way to Open Adoption
