Mardie Caldwell's wonderful book is the only one to answer all your questions about adoption. Whether you need help finding the child of your dreams or have been touched by adoption and would like to know more this book will provide the support and wealth of information you need.

EVERYTHING you need to know about adopting IN ONE BOOK, I love the authors ability to capture each situaton that can come up (including financial),lessening the fear of starting the adoption process. Many resources (if not all) are listed for every state and Canada! A must have guide if you are considering adopting.

The title says it all! We have been so overwhelmed with wondering where to start, how, with who and all the other emotions entaled with adopting, we really needed it laid out simple and with honest hope! We no longer need a collection of books on adoption...this covers it all and in simple to understand steps! Thank you for "walking with us" along our journey!

Adoption: Your Step by Step Guide is actually a great handbook for all. Whether you are interested in adoption or helping others with resources. Adoptive parents, adoption attorneys, adoption agencies, social workers or anyone interested in adoption will benefit from it. The strategies that Caldwell suggests will help readers minimize their adoption steps, retain more knowledge for themselves, reduce adoption stress, and save them money. Which we were able to apply much of what we learned to our adoption process. Although the scope of this book appears formidable at first glance , the author has made it very easy to read, through and simple to understand. The various chapters are organized effectively. Adoptive parents will not find any redundancy or confusion among the text or information. Caldwell's quality of writing is also superb; she is an expert in adoption and at capturing the reader interest, not only with her words, but also by adding relevant stories between chapters as well as an enormous selection of web site resources. You will find the book a great value with rich usable content we referred back to often. We loved the book and are now matched with an infant to adopt, thanks to this great book. I would highly recommend this guide to anyone that is serious about adoption.
