Universal stories of longing and belonging. Our quest for origin and, by extension, identity is universal to the human experience. For the twenty-five contributors to Somebody's Child , the topic of adoption is not--and perhaps never can be--a neutral issue.

Together, these three books challenge readers to reexamine traditional definitions of the concept of "family."
