Of all of the adoptive parenting books, what I like about The Essential Adoption Handbook is the questions. The Essential Adoption Handbook includes lists of questions to ask yourself, your spouse, the agency, a birth mother, a social worker, and then includes lists of questions that they're all likely to ask you. There is a lot of information packed into this little book, and its resources section is informative. There are better books out there, but this is still a worthwhile read.

Child #1: Is that your mother?
Child #2: Yes.
Child #1: Why is she white and you are black?
Child #2: Because I am adopted, and black people have more melanin than white people do.
Child #1: Oh, let's go on the high bars.
