Description:

Truly Yours is a collection of thoughts, ideas, and stories about the miracle of adoption. From the great thinkers to the simple truths in children's books; from the memoirs of parents in the midst of the process, to the insights of their adopted sons and daughters, this book includes the most poignant and the most candid ideas about adoption. The thoughts are both wonderful and inspiring, for example:  "Adoption carries the added dimension of connection not only to your own tribe but beyond, widening the scope of what constitutes love, ties, and family. It is a larger embrace."   Truly Yours is meant to be a source of inspiration and insight as well as a resource (with extensive reading lists both for adults and for children) for all who are touched by the incredible act of adopting a child.  Revised and updated, it is the ideal gift for anyone considering adopting! Originally published in 2003, TRULY YOURS, now has fifty percent new material.Truly Yours is not just for adoptive families and those pursuing adoption -- though it is the perfect gift for them and every adoptive family should have it -- but also for their friends and extended families who want a better understanding of the experience. More than 5 million people in the United States are adopted. Considering that birth parents, adoptive parents, siblings, grandparents and other extended family members are connected to each adoptee, the number of Americans whose lives are directly and intimately affected by the adoption of a child reaches into the tens of millions.
