From the Publisher:

2008 Silver Recipient of the Mom's Choice Award for the Best Children's Book in Family Life. A book that pulls at the heart strings!

From the Author:

Use my book to open up discussions with your adopted child about other reasons they may have been relinguished, other family members who may have done the abandoning for birth family, how they may have born to a city family or a single mom. Their birth family may have hoped for a Chinese family to adopt them. Discuss the details you know about their story such as if they were in a children's home or with a foster mom, their abandonement site and care they received in China. Ask them what they think their birth mom might write in a letter to them if she could and what you think she might write. "Letter Of Love From China", assures the child of birth mom's love but is intended to give only one scenario of a relinguishment. We as parents can not give our children the exact circumstances of their birth families situation. We can only give them the possibilities. Give my book as a gift to any child to help them understand International Adoption. Understanding will help avoid uncomfortable questions adopted children may be asked by other children.
