Publisher's Note Sherrie Eldridge was adopted at ten days old and raised in a family that had a difficult time handling her special needs as an adopted child. As an adult, she has dedicated herself to educating families on how to deal with issues specific to the adopted child. To this end, she formed an organization, Jewel Among Jewels Adoption Network, Inc., which helps educate people about the unique needs of the adopted child and publishes a quarterly newsletter, Jewel Among Jewels Adoption News. Speaking to the unspoken concerns at the heart of every adoptive family, Eldridge offers practical advice for addressing past issues, handling current crises, and ensuring a long, loving future for readers and their children. Themes covered include everything from mourning birth parents to identity issues and suggestions for discussing adoption with kids.
