Book Reviews of Broken Cord

Book Review: A truly powerful book!
Summary: 5 Stars

This is the story of a man and his adopted son and the devotion Dorris had to his son. It exposes more than fetal alcohol syndrome. It gives us insight into what it means to be a parent and love unconditionally. Dorris contributed so much to humanity; he will be missed.
