PreSchool-Grade 2--A young girl introduces herself to readers: "My family was formed by adoption, so I look just like… me!" She goes on to tell the story of her move from an undisclosed Asian country. She describes her experiences with her family, the activities she enjoys, and her thoughts about her birth parents. In the end, she says that wherever she goes she will always have her family by her side. Carlson has selected a topic that's in great demand. Unfortunately, this effort falls flat. The text is lively but sounds too adult and too preachy to ring true as a child's voice. Some will view the cartoon illustrations of the main character as stereotypical. Her eyes are drawn as slanted lines and look closed on most of the pages, while the non-Asian faces have large dots for eyes and look wide open. For more successful adoption stories depicting Asian children, try Rose A. Lewis's I Love You Like Crazy Cakes(Little, Brown, 2000) and Eve Bunting's Jin Woo (Clarion, 2001).--Rachel G. Payne, New York Public Library

Foreign Customer Review / 国外客户评价: |
Our son, Joshua, was in his 2s and we wanted to introduce the fact that he was adopted in a bit more concrete way (since we talk about it openly with other people when he is around). I tried talking with him at bedtime, but he got very uncomfortable. I checked out a few books from the library, and this became one of his favorites quickly. Even though he is a boy and was a domestic adoption, he does like this book. |
