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
