Daddy J’s reading list
So J decided a week or so ago that he needed to do some reading. Here is the reading list I put together for him, which I think summarized some of the best adoption, parenting and Ethiopian culture resources in easy-to-read formats. Maybe he’ll give you book reviews when he is done each!

I should add the disclaimer that I’ve read 20+ books on international adoption, several parenting tomes and numerous websites etc. about Ethiopia. (Plus, we’ll be travelling to the country to gain firsthand impressions and experiences.) These books are, however, definitely good introductions and summaries, if you don’t like reading as much as I do.
