"Based on the author's own experience, this heartfelt story follows a woman on her journey to adopt a baby girl from China. From paperwork to plane flight, the narrative chronicles the baby's trip from a crib in a big room shared with many other babies to her own crib in her own room in her new room. Jane Dyer's delicate watercolors perfectly complement this charming text, a celebration of the love and joy a baby brings into the world."

A Beautiful Book
This book was beautifully written and illustrated. The story will be incredibly helpful for families who have adopted from China, however, my criticism is that there is no mention at all about fathers. In fact, I believe now, single mothers can no longer adopt from China. I gave this as a gift to my friend who just adopted and we talked about editing as they read it to their new daughter to add the father into it. All in all, this book was very sweet.

Excellent Chinese Adoption Story!
If you are thinking about Chinese adoption...or have adopted...this is the perfect story for you and/or your child to read! Beautiful words and beautiful pictures!

A great book
This is an excellent book and I received in such good condition I gave it as
a gift.

What a beautiful book!
The other night I was at a friend's house and had the privelege of having her 9 year old adoptive son read me this book! We talked about the pictures, how they reminded me of China and the orphanage my in-laws frequently visited when they lived there, and we talked about how the baby's Chinese Mom would like to know her baby was safe and happy, just like his birth mom knows he is safe and happy.
As someone considering adoption, I was deeply touched by the book, and since my young friend chose it to read to me, he too obviously likes it. I am grateful to this author for sharing her experiences and feelings in such a beautiful, heartwarming book!

silly story
I didn't like it. Story was silly and stupid. It writes like a first grader, very choppy. There are such great stories out there with nice happy meanings - this was just a woman who wanted a child, nothing really special beyond that. Sorry, not sure what the big deal is about this book.
