Truly Yours is a collection of thoughts, ideas, and stories about the miracle of adoption. From the great thinkers to the simple truths in children's books; from the memoirs of parents in the midst of the process, to the insights of their adopted sons and daughters, this book includes the most poignant and the most candid ideas about adoption. The thoughts are both wonderful and inspiring, for example: "Adoption carries the added dimension of connection not only to your own tribe but beyond, widening the scope of what constitutes love, ties, and family. It is a larger embrace." Truly Yours is meant to be a source of inspiration and insight as well as a resource (with extensive reading lists both for adults and for children) for all who are touched by the incredible act of adopting a child. Revised and updated, it is the ideal gift for anyone considering adopting! Originally published in 2003, TRULY YOURS, now has fifty percent new material.
Truly Yours is not just for adoptive families and those pursuing adoption -- though it is the perfect gift for them and every adoptive family should have it -- but also for their friends and extended families who want a better understanding of the experience. More than 5 million people in the United States are adopted. Considering that birth parents, adoptive parents, siblings, grandparents and other extended family members are connected to each adoptee, the number of Americans whose lives are directly and intimately affected by the adoption of a child reaches into the tens of millions.

SHOW ME YOUR FACE -- 400 print pages, 86,000 words
In an age (late 1960’s and early 1970’s) when charlatans and quacks reigned in the treatment of autism, and when “refrigerator mothers” were blamed for the disorder, Peggy Raintree, a brave young mother, refuses to believe the myth that she caused her son’s condition by rejecting him at the breast—so she sets out to find her own answers. But will she be prevented from using her creative, new ideas to reach her strange little boy? And will he ever be able to show her his true face?
Peggy deals with the pressures in her life with strength and grace, and even in her darkest moments never loses sight of her goals. She is not perfect, either as a parent or spouse, but she is warm, clear-thinking, and brave.
The incidences of autism have skyrocketed in the last twenty years. This novel dramatizes the struggle to understand this phenomenon. It explores the foolish medical ignorance of the last forty years as well as the roots of the promising new ideas that have helped hundreds of autistic boys and girls in recent years.SHOW ME YOUR FACE -- 400 print pages, 86,000 words

A heartwarming, intimate and amusing memoir of a father's experience raising his autistic son.
When Tom Fields-Meyer's son Ezra was three and showing early signs of autism, a therapist suggested that the father needed to grieve.
"For what?" he asked.
The answer: "For the child he didn't turn out to be."
That moment helped strengthen the author's resolve to do just the opposite: to love the child Ezra was, a quirky boy with a fascinating and complex mind. Full of tender moments and unexpected humor, Following Ezra is the story of a father and son on a ten-year journey from Ezra's diagnosis to the dawn of his adolescence. It celebrates his growth from a remote toddler to an extraordinary young man, connected in his own remarkable ways to the world around him.

Brains, Trains & Video Games: Living The Autism Life details the emotional, humorous and often profoundly insightful journey of an everyday family raising a child with autism. This is a book about life with Ewan—the center of one family's universe and the gravity that holds them together. Far from being the stressor that causes this family to disintegrate, autism has made this family what it is today. A family that laughs more than it cries, and a family that eagerly awaits for the next Ewanism to spring forth from the lips of this solar system’s sun. Over the years we have built a bridge between his world and ours, his brain and ours, and his perspective and ours. Join us on the journey we’ve taken to help create a world of possibility for our son—a world filled with words, thoughts, ideas, and love.
Alicia Hart, author of Brains, Trains & Video Games, is a wife, mother and advocate for children and adults with autism spectrum disorder. She has worked for various autism related agencies, early intervention programs, and has consulted with schools, hospitals, and other programs regarding autism spectrum disorders, feeding aversions, and augmentative and alternative communication.
