Rose Lewis and Jane Dyer, both residents of Massachusetts, join their story-telling skills together to make the most beautiful book about international adoption that I have ever seen. The story follows a mother to China, where she adopts a new baby daughter, and effectively captures the beauty and wonder a truly treasured child brings to life. A strong bond between new mother and new daughter develops over the pages of softly stunning watercolours and the simple pretty prose. Ages 3-8. *****
