Here is a review on one of our newest titles that has such a wonderful topic surrounding it. This is a great book to discuss adoption and celebrate a family...no matter how that family is created. Enjoy!

I can only agree with this review of BABIES COME FROM AIRPORTS (Erin Dealey, Luciana Navarro Powell), as it truly is "one of the most touching picture books I have read in quite a while. It's a sweet tale about an important family moment." The delightful, rhyming text also makes this book a perfect read-aloud in honor of World Read Aloud Day!
