I love you like Crazy Cakes

By Rose Lewis, Illustrated by Jane Dyer ( Little, Brown and Company -2000)

Based on the author’s own experience, this heartfelt story follows a woman on her journey to adopt a baby girl from China. From paperwork to plane flight, the narrative chronicles the baby’s trip from a crib in a big room shared with many other babies to her own crib in her own room in her new home.
