一样的母爱: I LOVE YOU LIKE CRAZY CAKES

在网上找书的时候偶尔看到这本图画书"I Love You Like Crazy Cakes"，讲的是领养中国女孩的故事。因为身旁有两位好友也在考虑领养的事，心想这会不会对她们有所帮助，就好奇地从图书馆借了回来。

书的情节虽然简单，但写得很温馨感人，写的是作者去中国领养女儿的亲身经历，以母亲写给女儿的方式娓娓叙来，字里行间无不感受到一个母亲对女儿的爱，正是这一样的母爱，跨过了地球的两端，将母女俩紧紧地连在了一起。读到最后一页，我不禁泪盈于眶。那最后一页这样写道：

I held you tightly, kissed you softly, and cried. The tears were for your Chinese mother, who could not keep you. I wanted her to know that we would always remember her. And I hoped somehow she knew you were safe and happy in the world.

作者是Rose Lewis，领养女儿时是单身。插图是Jane Dyer，曾画过“TIME　FOR　BED”，也是水彩画的风格，很柔和，相配。
