Overview
It was a simple moment; it was a pivotal moment. They weren't the first mother-daughter pair to argue over a prom dress, but when it led to coveted information about Margy's birth mother, it opened up a new realization for the teenager. "I was no longer the refrain to my parents' song. But like other daughters, I now had a reference point from which I could gain a better understanding of myself." It was that seed of understanding that created a growing need to learn why she was so different from the family she had always known. As Margy's tale unfolds, it's at times a quest for her origins and at times a tender tale of mothers and daughters. With a bit of detective work, help from unlikely places and luck, she's able to retrace the steps of her ancestors and reclaim the history she'd long been denied. Author Margaret Meaney Hendrick speaks her heart with vivid imagery and frank humor in this unwavering look through the eyes of the adopted. Whether you are considering adoption, have adopted children, are adopted or are merely curious about this rarely discussed point of view, there is something in these pages for you.
