recommends it for: those touched by adoption

I have loved Michael McLean's songs about adoption since From God's Arms to My Arms to Yours came out in 1990. This book comes with a CD that has the three songs I knew and three others I didn't. The book contains the song lyrics, the story of how he became involved in the circle of adoption, and brief comments before each set of lyrics. Great gift book for anyone who has been touched by adoption. (I bought it for my mom for mother's day and got myself a copy as well :-)
