The Greatest Gift

The Greatest Gift is an exploration of the feelings and issues surrounding adoption. In a compelling, engaging narrative, Betsy Buckley interweaves an account of her experience with infertility and adoption with the stories of other adoptive parents, representing 27 different states and Canada. She provides practical information about all aspects of the process, from deciding to adopt to considering the social and cultural realities into which the child will be brought, using discussions with social workers and other professionals to expand and illuminate her anecdotal wisdom.
