Synopsis
Novelist Emily Prager shares the true story of the cross-cultural adoption of her daughter--a Chinese baby girl she named LuLu. Here Prager details the extraordinary efforts she took to help her daughter stay in touch with her Chinese heritage by traveling back to the small Chinese village where she was born. While in the small village of Wuhu, both LuLu and Prager immersed themselves in the culture, searched for LuLu's birth parents, and dealt with LuLu's adoption angst.

Publisher's Note
In 1994 an American writer named Emily Prager met her new daughter LuLu. All she knew about her was that the baby had been born in Wuhu, a city in southern China, and left near a police station in her first three days of life. Her birth mother had left a note with Lulu's western and lunar birth dates. In 1999 Emily and her daughter–now a happy, fearless four-year-old--returned to China to find out more. That journey and its discoveries unfold in this lovely, touching and sensitively observed book.

In Wuhu Diary, we follow Emily and LuLu through a country where children are doted on yet often summarily abandoned and where immense human friendliness can coexist with outbursts of state-orchestrated hostility–particularly after the U. S. accidentally bombs the Chinese embassy in Belgrade. We see Emily unearthing precious details of her child’s past and LuLu coming to terms with who she is. The result is a book that will delight anyone interested in China, and that will move and instruct anyone who has ever adopted--or considered adopting--a child.

Industry reviews
"An elegant sense of place, an emotive story of great vulnerability, and a wonderful gift from mother to daughter."
Kirkus Reviews  (06/15/2001)

"[W]hen we see and hear from LuLu herself...the book bursts into color...[T]he journey the book chronicles most interestingly is an interior one: LuLu's dawning awareness of her abandonment at birth, and Prager's attempts to help her through that experience."
New York Times Book Review - Lindsay Amon Specktor
