Over The Moon by Karen Katz

Over The Moon by Karen Katz is a wonderful story of international adoption for young children. The author and her husband adopted their daughter from Guatemala.

“…it was after my husband and I adopted our daughter from Guatemala that I was inspired to do a children’s book for her. My first book, Over the Moon, was the story of that magical experience of welcoming our daughter Lena into our lives. I painted, I drew, I collaged, and I wrote, and after working very hard… a beautiful book was born! Twenty-two books later, my daughter–now fourteen years old–still is an inspiration for me”.

My kids enjoy this book, even though they were not adopted internationally. They read it at the library.
