Overview

Far beyond just reinforcing a child's learning of their ABCs, a newly-published children's alphabet book is spreading the word about the rewarding and wonderful option of adoption. Written by Eileen Tucker Cosby, a Phoenix-area adoptive mother, and titled "A" is for Adopted, the book expresses the joys of adoption. Ideal for adopted children, birth parents, adoptive parents and all families, the book covers concepts and emotions from "adoption" to "zest", with each letter accompanied by colorful and appropriate illustration and rhyming verse. The illlustrations were created by Norma Strange, also a Phoenix-area resident. Strange was drawn to this project because her mother was adopted and she has a deep compassion and commitment toward adoption.

Reading between the lines however, people will find another message in the book, according to Cosby. The message, and the author's mantra, is - adoption is the option.

"The book shows adopted children how deeply they are loved. Birthparents who want their child to have the best can read the book and truly understand just how much their baby will be loved. It will reassure them that placing their child for adoption is an act of love," Cosby said.

As author, Cosby has first hand experience with her book's subject. After more than 8 years of physically, financially and emotionally challenged infertility treatments proved unsuccessful, she and her husband, David, turned to adoption. The couple became the proud parents of a baby boy, who Cosby says was conceived from the couples hearts.

"By choosing the option of adoption both biological and adoptive parents are making our world a better place," Cosby said.

Provides a way to introduce adoption to children, and reminds parents of adopted children of the precious gift they have been given.

    A reviewer

    I cried the first time that I read this book to our adopted daughter. It perfectly describes our experience and feelings and God's perfect plan for her life!

    A disappointing book

    I had purchased this book on-line due to some reviewer comments. However, I was surprised and disappointed by the religious references in the book. No one had mentioned them in their reviews. The religous language is sexist and holds to particular theological views that may not be part of every family's faith tradition. I put this book away.

    lengthy

    i think it could have been just a little shorter for the children to stay with it better, otherwise a great read.

    "A" Is for Adopted

    As a mother who has adopted two children and now watched my daughter adopt a baby, this book captured my heart! It's all about love and making certain that the adopted child knows how important they are to the family.
