Mommy Far, Mommy Near: An Adoption Story


Poignantly written, warmly illustrated, this deeply moving story is based on the author's own family. (Note: Ms. Peacock is a child psychologist) Young Elizabeth feels a range of emotions as she learns she has two mommies: one in China and one in America. Her adoptive mother explains that although her Chinese mother loved her and wanted to keep her, she couldn't because of China's one child/one family laws. Eventually, with the help and support of her mother, Elizabeth begins to accept that she has a far mommy and a near mommy. While written about China adoption specifically, this wonderful picture book will help any internally adopted child begin to work through the issues of birth family loss and grief with great care and compassion. An absolute must for your bookshelf!
