Book Reviews of When You Were Born in China: A Memory Book for Children Adopted from China
Book Review: GREAT book and keepsake!
Summary: 5 Stars
This book is fantastic. We are leaving to pick up our daughter from China in 11 days and I am bringing this book with us so our guides can sign it and we can get our daughter's footprint stamped in the front. I can not wait to read it to her when she is old enough to understand all about her life before she joined our "forever family". Book Review: Adoption memory book
Summary: 5 Stars
Was very happy with the book I purchased from this vendor. It was in excellent condition and arrived in plenty of time for Christmas!Book Review: a perfect gift for my daughter in the future
Summary: 4 Stars
I loved the text of this book and the over all message, I took a copy to China when I adopted my daughter and had her nannies sign it and write messages to her that she can read in the future, it is a great keepsake. I loved the book so much I bought copies for everyone I knew who had or was waiting to adopt from China. Tells the story of many children adopted from China in a very positive way. I like the pictures too, being in black and white gave it a different feel, would have liked to see some color to give China more vibrant life, but otherwise the book is good, so 4 out of 5 stars.Book Review: Good Book For Parents To Read To Their Children
Summary: 4 Stars
This book gives a general view on the `whys' of your child's adoption, from the culture, rules in China to why you are her parents and what that means to her. It tackles some issues that well certainly spawn endless amount of questions. Be prepared to answer them honestly in a heart to heart conversation. The book is simple, averaging one or two paragraphs per page, with many black and white pictures of China and the children. It's a nice book for children four or older as it takes comprehension of what is being said. You'll be able to tell when the right time to read this book is.
Aesthetically the book is beautiful and artistic, despite the fact that it's slender, it's not the best for small hands.
Book Review: When You Were Born In China
Summary: 5 Stars
We adopted our daughter from China in 2003 and this book is an excellent resource for us, our daughter as well as for family and friends who do not exactly understand the whole China Adoption process. We are thrilled with the content as it is factual but presented in a sensitive/caring manner. I cried from the first page on. This will be an excellent tool as we get ready for our second China adoption.
