beyond what you can find on the Internet, You Can Adopt filters out
the noise and gathers the best there is to know on the experience
of adopting." —Susan Soonkeum Cox, vice president, Holt
International Children's Services
"An absolute must-read. These hauntingly beautiful tales are all
about the astonishing power of love between children and parents
who in so many cases seemed eerily destined to be together. This
book convinced me: If you want to do so, you can adopt–and it will
be the best thing you've ever done."—Susan Kane, editor in chief,
Parenting
magazine "A satisfying combination of facts and guidelines that are
simple to follow with the supportive, lyrical, sentimental and
experienced words of those who have lived the experiences of every
aspect of the process from beginning to end."—Dr. Jane Aronson,
director, International Pediatric Health Services, and CEO,

on the topic. The authors lay out the process in a
smart, step-by-step fashion; essays from adoptive parents give it
the feel of a real-life support group."—Cookie magazine
"An excellent handbook…This thorough and honest resource
stands out among other books on this topic in both its
comprehensiveness and the authors' candor…Rather than endorsing any
one way to adopt, the [authors] examine many approaches and outline
the benefits and pitfalls of each." —Booklist , starred
