Helpful Score: 3


I really love the book. I read it while waiting for a flight and I could just imagine how people saw me crying while reading a book...

There are so many kids who are considered "difficult to place" because of outbursts, tantrums and testing. Other times it's just because the kids are over a certain age. Please google Heart Gallery or Hope, Inc., which are organizations that try to find adoptive families for children who are "difficult to place".

I watched the movie after reading the book. Loved the special features where they speak to father and son...love john cusack, but the movie disappointed me.
