CHILDREN'S BOOK ABOUT ADOPTION:

Just Waiting for My Family

written and illustrated by Terry M. Mandeville

 

FINALLY! A children’s book for children adopted from ALL of Eastern Europe

This full-color book is illustrated by the author from first-hand knowledge of Eastern European "Children's Homes" (orphanages). It is an emotional and real adoption story for children. JUST WAITING FOR MY FAMILY realistically describes life in an ex-Soviet-style Childrens Home as a child waits for a real family and the beginning of an adoption journey.

The author is a Psychiatric RN who has worked with children and families for several decades. She was united with her two sons in Bulgaria. She has written this tale of adoption from the child’s point of view. This is the story that evolved as she used to tell her boys their adoption story when they first came home with her. From these words they seemed to gain some measure of reassurance and peace during those stressful times, and learned that they were not, by any means, alone in their feelings.

This is a story you can read to children over and over again, through many stages of development, providing an ideal opportunity for open discussion with children who were adopted, as well as their siblings, friends, and family. It is one to which most children adopted from Eastern European and Ex-Soviet style Children's Homes can relate.


 

 

********** Thanks for shopping... and happy bidding! ************

 

I accept Pay Pal - primarily so that I can get your item to you as quickly as possible. Checks take forever to clear, and sadly I have been burned a few times. If you charge your item with Pay Pal I am often able to ship the same day as the bidding closes. Please pay for your item within 7 days of auction ending. If a problem arises with payment, please let me know ASAP. I am always willing to process problems. However, if I do not hear from you and do not receive payment within 7 days I will have to re-list this item, and file a non-payment claim, which would have to be reflected in the feedback I leave.

Shipping and handling costs are just what it costs me to list the item on ebay, use paypal, buy packing supplies, and pay postage. I wish I could charge less... but I do not have the funds to pay for it out of my own pocket. I try to package items carefully, according to USPS standards, using recycled materials as I am able. Items will ship USPS Parcel Post, which to most places arrives within about 10 DAYS. However, you know the post office... sometimes it takes longer, through no fault of my own. If you want to pay more for quicker shipment, insurance, or any other post office services let me know. I will combine orders and offer a shipping discount if you purchase more than one item. Seller does not accept any responsibility for items lost or damaged if insurance is not purchased. Items can be tracked by contacting the Postal Service directly.
