Rock Needs River by Vanessa McGrady
This is a memoir about the author’s open adoption of her daughter. And when I say open adoption, I mean very open. The birth parents lived with the author and her daughter for a period of time. The biological parents reminded me very much of clients that I’ve had, or parents that I’ve worked with in some of my juvenile cases, so I could relate to the hope and frustrations experienced by the author in trying to help them. An interesting book.
