Book Reviews of Happy Adoption Day!
Book Review: Love it
Summary: 5 Stars
Still brings a tear every time I read it or make dh sing it. We have a four year old bio son, 20 month old triplets who we adopted (we have had them from seconds after their birth), and I am pregnant with boy number five. Because two of our five are bio, we don't call November 18 "Adoption Day," but "Family Day." Still, I cannot read this lovely song, or point to the vibrant pictures without my voice shaking. My kids are all young, so I have no way of knowing how they will like it when they are old enough to have questions. It just seems to express beautifully and simply much of what I feel as an adoptive mom. It is certainly not a comprehensive thought-provoking manual for addressing the deeper adoption issues I hope to discuss with my kids as they mature. This is merely a celebration and a love song, and for now that is quite enough for me.
Summary of Happy Adoption Day!
This adaptation of McCutcheon's song commemorates the day when a child joins an adoptive family. Complete with musical notation, these verses reassure adopted children they are special. Full-color illustrations.Adoption Books
