Jana Wolff

This book addresses adoption issues no one else would dare to with questions such as: What if I don't like the kid I get? Will my child ever feel like mine? Why am I so sad when I'm supposed to be so happy? Are people staring, or am I paranoid? Will she want him back? What if I want to return home? Selected Reading Questionnaire.

While our experiences as adoptive mothers are quite different, I enjoyed reading about Ms. Wolff's feelings during the adoption process and in those first years. It is a stretching experience to learn to love a child that isn't biologically related - especially after going through the emotional journey of infertility.

Author talks about her journey through an adoption. Very fast and easy read. Good to read as she covers alot of the emotions and thoughts we go through but never say out loud.
