In this warm, funny, and wise new book, NPR’s award-winning
and beloved Scott Simon tells the story of how he and his
wife found true love with two tiny strangers from the other
side of the world. It’s a book of unforgettable moments:
when Scott and Caroline get their first thumb-size pictures
of their daughters, when the small girls are placed in their
arms, and all the laughs and tumbles along the road as they
become a real family. Woven into the tale of Scott, Caroline, and the two little
girls who changed their lives are the stories of other
adoptive families. Some are famous and some are not, but
each family’s saga captures facets of the miracle of adoption. Baby, We Were Meant for Each Other is a love story that
doesn’t gloss over the rough spots. There are anxieties and
tears along with hugs and smiles and the unparalleled joy of
this blessed and special way of making a family. Here is a
book that families who have adopted—or are considering
adoption—will want to read for inspiration. But everyone can
enjoy this story because, as Scott Simon writes, adoption
can also help us understand what really makes families, and
how and why we fall in love.
