With I LOVE YOU LIKE CRAZY CAKES, author Rose Lewis
brings to lifer her true story of adopting a baby from China.
What begins as a letter to Chinese officials ends with bringing
home a baby girl, to the delight of her new mother and
extended family.
Jane Dyer's illustrations are soft and dreamy, and perfectly
compliment the story of Rose and her daughter, Alexandra
Mae-Ming Lewis. From that first time of holding her new
daughter, to the first night alone back in America, the feelings
of love and devotion are evident on every page.
Although this is a book sure to appeal to parents who have
adopted children from other countries, specifically China, it's a
great story for any child, adopted or not. In fact, my daughter
was especially enamored by the book, since it was her first
introduction as to what adoption truly means.
Great as a bedtime or any time story, it's no wonder that I LOVE
YOU LIKE CRAZY CAKES is well on its way to becoming a
children's classic.
