Description

STARRED, SCHOOL LIBRARY JOURNAL. "Celia (who appears to be five or six years old) has always known that she was adopted, but she is just beginning to understand the significance of the word. Although her parents deal with her questions with honesty and love, Celia experiences a confused mixture of fear and anger....This well-written book succeeds as a story as well as bibliotherapy. Information a young child can understand about adoption is skillfully integrated into the text. Expressive pencil drawings within colored borders enhance the story. One of the best titles about adoption available for young children. "This is attractive and absorbing-- a very good source for adults looking for ways to deal with children's feelings about adoption."--BOOKLIST.
