Adoption Books

Here is a list of adoption books I have found helpful:

Adoption: Choosing It, Living It, Loving It  By Dr Ray Guarendi

Real Parents, Real Children by van Gulden & Bartels-Rabb

Adoption Parenting

Toddler Adoption: The Weaver's Craft by Mary Hopkins Best

Raising Adopted Children by Lois Ruskai Melina

Adopting the Hurt Child by Keck & Kupecky

The Connected Child by Karyn Purvis

Attaching in Adoption by Deborah Gray

Simplicity Parenting by Kim John Payne, M. Ed not an adoption book, but here are my reasons for adding it to this list.

Brothers and Sisters in Adoption by Arleta James

Lucky Girl  an engaging memoir about a woman and her birth family

Some you will want to read cover to cover and others you will pick up to thumb through the index.  All good books to investigate.
