In this section we have gathered books by a largely ignored and/or hidden segment of the adoption community, adult adoptees and birthparents. These books can be an important piece when it comes to rounding out your understanding of adoption. By reading materials written by individuals living in the other corners of the adoptive triad, you can learn more about their perspectives and feelings. Adoptive parents might learn from adult adoptees how they can be better parents right now. Adoptees may find themselves able to make sense of feelings they couldn’t process by reading materials written by birthparents, or find comfort in the similar thoughts of other adoptees. We think of this section as a place for people to walk with others who have been on their path while opening themselves up to new avenues in their journey as well.
