Told through the voices of adoptive parents, their children-young
and grown up-and birth mothers, and accompanied by fifty stunning
photographs, Be My Baby is a luminous window into the adoptive family.
As people who have postponed childbearing, or who have been unable
to have children, look for role models and real-life stories, the
book shows them how well adoptive families work. Indeed, Be My Baby
captures, with grace, insight, and emotion, the deeply felt bonds
and life-affirming experiences that are at the heart of raising an
adoptive family-or any family for that matter.
