Carson's Book: a Story About Adoption from China Richard Busby

This story conveys a father's perspective about adoption. To this end, the often complex adoption process is simplified to help moms and dads describe "what happened" to their children. Mr. Busby says "It is a picture book, designed as a vehicle to gently explain how families come together through adoption." In sharing his personal story, the author hopes to provide a starting point for discussions between other parents and their daughters from China. The author hopes that other adoptive families will find the picture book helpful as a facilitative tool as they tell their own family stories. The story is punctuated with several questions to elicit imaginative responses from children about what they think the little girl might do when she gets older. The author hopes you enjoy Carson's Book, one of many storys of the little girls that come from China to become members of famlies in locations throughout the world.
