Book Reviews of Happy Adoption Day!
Book Review: I Really Wanted To Like It
Summary: 2 Stars
Books about adoption are very important to me. My wife and I have adopted two girls from China so we want to read them stories that show adoption as something beautiful. Happy Adoption Day has great color, lots of smiles, and even comes with a song that you can play on the piano or some other instrument. Unfortunately I didn't like some of McCutcheon's lyrics. I don't like how he repeatedly says, For out of a world so tattered and torn, You came to our house on that wonderful morn...". The entire world is messed up, and I don't like this "we saved you" mentality. Elsewhere John writes, "Some parents come different, some come the same...". If you come from a conservative mindset, I can see how you might not want to expose your children to this kind of lifestyle.
