About the Author:
Beth O'Malley is an adoptee, adoptive mom and professional in the field of adoption. With a Masters in Counseling, Beth relies on her instincts and experiences as an adult adoptee as much as her skill when preparing foster children for adoption. In 2000, she wrote Lifebooks: Creating a Treasure for the Adopted Child. This book has helped thousands of parents and children connect and successfully work through the issues of adoption including understanding why kids don't live with their biological families. Beth's latest work, My China Lifebook, offers parents and children adopted from China new ways to talk about their inner concerns and build upon their attachment to their family.
Review:
" Lily was gung ho to get started--- she signed the pledge (in signature style) and we moved forward - She was very excited to have a China project to work on and felt special doing it - She loved the drawing part and had a greater grasp of the "real deal" than I gave her credit for - --Lorraine. Mom to Lily age 5, adopted from China
"I have seen a confidence in Sara since we've done this workbook that I have never seen before. It seems like a big puzzle piece was just put into place for her. This was a real breakthrough." --Fran Zabawa (mother to Sarah age 9 from YiYang)
