A PERFECT MATCH
Book ID/图书代码: 00200005B08911
English Summary/英文概要: After two years of being deafened by the TICKTOCK of her biological clock and tormented by Mother Nature’s refusal to grant her a baby, Emma Hamilton decides to go for the instant solution: finding a Russian baby in need of a home. But Emma hasn’t reckoned on the route to adoption being so complicated. Between proving that she’s fit to be a mother (by inventing an unblemished past and discovering an unsuspected talent for housekeeping), driving her long-suffering husband insane with madcap schemes to make them the perfect would-be parents (a few Russian verbs a night and they’ll be fluent in no time), and tripping over red tape every step of the way (who knew social workers could be so terrifying?) Emma finds out that adoption is far from the easy option - and that perfection has very little to do with finding the perfect match.
Chinese Summary/中文概要: 一个有趣、感人且真实的故事;Emma Hamilton 在过去的两年之中饱受失聪之苦,并一直为无子而烦恼。于是她决定,希望能够领养一名俄罗斯弃婴;但对于她而言,认养之路真可谓是漫长多舛:一方面,她要证明自己有能力成为一名合格的母亲(把家族背景编的完美无暇,还要懂得做一手好家务),同时也要表明整个家庭已为领养做好了准备,这令得她早已多灾多难的老公再次叫苦不迭(为了速成俄语,全家每晚都要背诵几个单词);还有,更麻烦的是,冗长的申请过程简直令人抓狂(你能想到社工如此吹毛求疵么)。在这个过程之中,Emma逐渐意识到领养并不是看上去那么的简单 - 她们所做的一切,与合格二字还相距甚远。(WHL)
