Secret Thoughts of an Adoptive Mother (Paperback)
Price 10.98 - 14.95 USD
While books about adoption proliferate, none of them addresses the subject of open and interracial adoption like Jana Wolff"s personal and frank account does in [i]Secret Thoughts of an Adoptive Mother[/i]. Often irreverent, always insightful, surprisingly funny and stunningly honest, [i]Secret Thoughts[/i] tells it like it is: How it feels for a woman to look nothing like her child and to know the woman who does. This fiercely honest and funny book answers questions no one dares to ask: What if I don"t like the child I get? Will she want the baby back? If this is the happiest day of my life, why am I so sad? Am I too white for a kid this black? Chapter titles include: "The Myth of Bliss," Friendly Racism," "Meeting Your Child"s Mother," and "Adopted Poop Doesn"t Smell Any Different."
