Accepting China is a newly released work of children's fiction by writer and adoptive mom Rhonda Ballard.  Below is a recap from Rhonda...

Have you ever wondered what your pets are thinking?  Well, I have a pretty good idea of what mine thought the day I brought home a poodle named China to join our family.  This story is about a family of pets coping with a new family member.  Phil, Oreo and Rush were just as surprised by the unexpected addition to our family as I was when I rescued China from a busy highway.  Accepting China is a fictional account of true events as seen through the eyes of my Chihuahua, Phil.  

The story is intended to parallel the thoughts and feelings that children have when a new baby or child comes into their family.  Oreo, Phil, Rush and China are real brothers and sisters.  They add a new twist to a situation that most children experience; either through birth or adoption.  Finding China in February 2000 and the adoption of my daughter from China in November 2000 was the inspiration for this story.  I am an adoptive mother of a daughter from China and a son from Korea.  My husband and I are in the process of adopting another daughter from China and plan to adopt a second son from Korea in the future.  Being a mother is the most joyful, challenging responsibility I’ve ever known.  I look forward to all of the events we have yet to experience as an adoptive family.
