Here is a great review on one of Jamie Lee Curtis and Laura Cornell's books on Adoption.
Sandy L. says: This book is a classic and must-have book for a young child...the adoption is a domestic private adoption of an infant so if you adopted an older child, this might not be the book you want. "Tell me again about the night I was born...", a little girl asks and then proceeds to tell her favorite story all by herself. About how her parents were sleeping when the phone call came, how they screamed with joy, took an airplane to the hospital and held hands all the way there. There is a wonderful poignancy about the way the author expresses the emotions of adoption ("Tell Me Again How Something So Small Could Make You Smile So Big......") and how they protected the baby from sneezes on the way home in the airplane. The art is wonderful, watercolor style, whimsical and full of amusing details.

I bought this book for my daughter when she was just a couple of months old. She loves to have it read to her!!! I think it is a very heart warming book. I would advise anyone who has adopted to give this book to their child.
