Waiting For Lucinda Written by our own Amy Shore, Adoption Counselor and Freelance Writer, Waiting for Lucinda is a book that takes the reader on a journey through international adoption. Written with passion, honesty, humor, and love, author Amy Shore describes the ups and downs of adopting a child from Guatemala. The truths and the fictions, the myths and the realities, the highs and the lows: this is how adoption really is. From hope to heartache, anger and determination, the will to believe when all else fails, bureaucratic red tape, an interesting cast of international characters, and the agony of the wait – come along on this incredible, heartwarming journey to meet Lucinda.
