What do Moses, Marilyn Monroe and Nelson Mandela have in common? They are all accomplished people and they were all adopted! "Adopted Like Me" features 20 stories of adoptees - men and women, of diverse races and nationalities, and talents who have made outstanding achievements in their lives. This collection will not only engage and inspire but help children who are adopted to realise that there are many people just like them, and if they work hard and believe, they can fulfil their dreams. Fully illustrated in colour, this book will be a wonderful resource for children who have been adopted, their parents, teachers and siblings.

Industry Reviews

A wonderfully creative, informative, and ultimately empowering book for adopted children and their families. Aristotle, Nelson Mandela, Steve Jobs - I'm honored to be included in such a varied and illustrious collection of adoptees!' - Sarah Saffian, author of Ithaka: A Daughter's Memoir of Being Found 'Adopted Like Me is a great book that expands what ''adopted'' means to include relative/kinship care and guardianships as well as traditional adoption. It will be a great starting point for discussing adoption in families and will help children and youth to understand that no matter how they joined their families, they are loved and cherished. Ann Angel has both deepened our understanding of adoption and shown what a diverse mix of people have shaped our world. This is not only a family lesson - it is also a great history lesson of the good that happens when people are loved.' - Colleen Ellingson, CEO, Coalition for Children, Youth & Families, USA
