What do we think about adoption? ISBN: 9780750224925
Powell, Jillian
Published by Wayland, 1999

Quality colour photographs and large print, along with the usual index, glossary, lists of further information and notes for parents and teachers make this useful and accessible. The information is basic but good and facts about fostering are also included. My one quibble is that there is an implication that children can always meet their birth parents if they so desire. While it is suggested in the 'notes' section that the possibility that birth parents may not want to meet their offspring could be a topic for discussion, this is not made clear in the text. Otherwise, an impressive production.
