Synopsis

Advance praise for the book "Adopting a child has never been an easy way to add to your family and international adoption is often even more complex. This author describes her journey attempting to align the adoption laws and immigration in two different worlds. The reader can feel her determination on every page as she ploughs through bureaucracy to bring her daughter home." -Wendy Robinson BSW worked as the director of Christian Adoption Services in Calgary, Canada for 25 years preparing families for international adoption. Erika Isnor was a new flight attendant for a Canadian airline when she traveled to Jamaica with her family to escape the cold winter. Erika decided to visit an orphanage in Montego Bay after discovering how many hungry, homeless, orphans wandered the island of Jamaica. In Canada, after returning from vacation, the prospective adoption would cause a disruption in the home, threatening the family's equilibrium. Eventually, the choice to adopt Ashley changed the lives of the entire family, forever. Under the Mango Tree provides an honest portrayal of the international adoption process after a Canadian family decides to welcome a Jamaican orphan into their lives, providing a forever home to a child in need.
