 A must read December 22, 2008

For anyone adopting an older child I think this is a must read book. I originally took this book out of the library, read it twice and still felt I needed to own it so I could mark pages for reference. The only information I wish was included is how to tackle some of these issues with a foreign born child who doesn't understand your language yet. FYI: I found this helpful for parenting my biological child as well as understanding myself better.
 Great book for adoptive parents September 23, 2008

I think this is a good resource for families who are adopting, especially those adopting children who are older and/or have had rocky starts in life.

What a great tool this book has been. It helped us make a break through with our second daughter who we had been struggling with for over a year. We had been working hard with all of her indivual issues in isolation. We worked with her language delays, her behavorial problems, her sleep issues, sibling struggles and more. This his book helped with the big picture and helped make all that all that other work come together in a way that really helped our whole family.
