I Love You Like Crazy Cakes

When Rose Lewis adopted a baby girl from China, her life became richer and full of love! In this charming picture book, based on her adoption experience, a would-be mother writers a letter to officials asking to adopt a child. After long months of waiting, she receives a picture of a little girl, and soon she is winging her way across the world to meet her baby girl in person. Then, after a long flight back, there's an exciting welcome where the new family get to introduce themselves to everyone in the little girl's new home.

"Lewis's sweetly sentimental picture-book debut plays out like a love letter to her adopted Chinese daughter....Dyer's (When Mama Comes Home Tonight) watercolors are almost meltingly tender." -- Publisher's Weekly

Description

Amazon.com Review

Mother-love is profound, however a baby comes into a woman's life. For Rose Lewis, the journey to motherhood begins with a letter to Chinese officials, asking if she can adopt from the "big room with lots of other babies." The infants in that room in China are each missing a mother, but Lewis is missing something, too -- a baby. She travels to China to meet her new little girl and falls head over heels in love. Taking her baby home to America, Lewis introduces her to all her family and friends, and they begin their life together. A touching love story, I Love You Like Crazy Cakes will warm the cockles of any new parent's heart, especially those who have recently adopted a child. -- Emilie Coulter
