I contributed two pieces to this project and I am proud of them. I've contributed to another Chicken Soup book as well, but I did not review that one. Why am I reviewing this one? The contributions are wonderful. I read the book through on the day I received it and love it. I marked many stories to share with my children, who, like me, are adopted. Yes, it contains my eldest son's adoption story, but it also is helping me deal with issues I still have and did not think were there. Reading the common threads that run through these stories, the pain, the joy, the healing has really struck a chord in my heart I did not know I had. It's a wonderful read.

I bought the book for our younger daughter. She & her husband are in the process of adopting the most adorable little girl. What few stories I did read I liked. I have never had a Chicken Soup book that I didn't like.

If the rest of the stories are as touching and emotional as "It Was You" by Ana Hays then I look forward to reading the entire book with interest.
"It Was You" touched my soul and reminded me of the joys and sorrows of life. It make me cry.

Chicken Soup for the Adopted Soul is a warm and touching read across a wide spectrum of people and unique and touching situations. "It Was You" on page 308, was the story of the culmination of a very long search for Ana Hay's birth mother as she lay in critical condition in a hospital in Duluth. Ana's portrayal of the day's events and the very first communication with her birth mother are gripping and certainly provide a lot of questions for the reader, as well.

Touching in so many ways... it brings tears of sorrow and joy. I really got a better understanding of the whole issue and how those who offer their children what they consider a better existence and those who get adopted feel. Truly outstanding writing makes this book a good purchase.
