Book Reviews of Three Names of Me
Book Review: I Love This Book!
Summary: 5 Stars
I don't know what I like better: the story or the illustrations. Both are soft, realistic, and this fabulous mix of the sweet-sad that comes with being adopted. Ada( who must be 7 or 8) writes the story and asks at the end " Have you ever made a scrapbook about you?"
A perfect segway into a lifebook. And you know how much I like lifebooks. :)

Summary of Three Names of Me
Ada has three names. Wang Bin is what the caregivers called her at her Chinese orphanage. Ada is the name her American parents gave her as the three traveled home. And there is a third name, a name the infant Ada only heard whispered by her Chinese mother. That name, unknown but treasured, is someplace in Ada's heart.Additonal pages based on Ada's scrapbook will inspire readers to collect their own drawings, photos, and thoughts.
