Finding our familia
The story of our children adopted from overseas
£9.95
Published as part of the Our Story series, this is the story of the adoption of two children from Guatemala. But it is more than that. It is a moving and inspirational account of how a couple, in their search to build their family, find not only two children but what will become their extended family – their familia.
The story charts the difficult bureaucratic processes of intercountry adoption, and the couple's many journeys to Guatemala, during which they learn about the country, its history and day-to-day life. They develop supportive relationships with their new found familia, get involved in local projects, and help their children maintain links with their origins as well as to belong to a multi-ethnic family in the UK.
This book is for anyone who is interested in the adoption experience and how this can affect parents and children, and particularly in intercountry adoption.
