Wish You Happy Forever: What China's Orphans Taught Me About Moving Mountains (2014) - Plot & Excerpts
This book was super inspiring to me. The author tells the story of her non-profit, Half the Sky, but it is so much more than just a narrative. She talks about stories of individual children, her own family, her personal growth and career, and the complexities of international business and adoption.It was a quick read and I expect I will take away entirely different lessons next time I read it. I'm sure this is a biased review-- I was already a fan of Jenny Bowen and Half the Sky, and I remember fondly the kind member of their staff who sat behind us on our flight home with our new daughter. But reading what all went on to make Half the Sky the successful program that it is is eye-opening, fascinating, inspiring, and touching. I'm even more amazed and more dedicated to continuing our support for them, on behalf of our daughter and all the world's children.
