Book Reviews of The Lost Daughters of China
Book Review: The Lost Daughters of China
Summary: 5 Stars
As the grandmother of an adopted Chinese four year old, I treasure this book for the evocative way the author told of her feelings about her journey to China to get her daughter, so much like my own daughter's story, so much like my own feelings. In addition to the emotional pull of the story, however, is the intelligent approach explaining this socio-cultural phenomenon. Evans' research is thorough, bringing together many facets of a complicated situation. She is an advocate for parents and their daughters, whether the parents are American or Chinese.Book Review: A Must Read!
Summary: 5 Stars
This book puts a realistic twist on the area of Adopting from China, she seems to see the whole process from ALL sides, the adoptive parents, the officials, from the INS, the United States Government and the Peoples Republic of China, she also gives us a rare look at what these babies birth mothers go though and the risks they take to assure their daughters are found and provided for. I highly recommend this book, it's by far the best of this genre out there.
