Event Manager of the Year 2021
“This isn’t just a book for people before they adopt; this is also a book for adopters. There were so many things you said that resonated so clearly with my experience. You articulate the concepts beautifully and the personal illustration from your life, so generously included, brings it to life and makes it real.”
“I LOVE IT! It’s written in a really easy-to-understand way, without too much jargon, and the technical stuff is explained in a clear way.”
“Your description of The Monster is a real insight into trauma and its effects on the children. I really gained an understanding and even recognised some traits in our 17-month-old. I appreciate the honesty you have included with your examples – letting the reader know what works/doesn’t work and that you have to change your approach as the child develops/heals.”
“A fabulous guide to harnessing the power of music to connect with our children”
– Sally Donovan, author of No Matter What and The Unofficial Guide to Adoptive Parenting
“Started reading and am HOOKED… I can definitely see myself using it with our girls as part of our regular routine.”
– Hannah Meadows, The Adoptive Parents’ Self-Care Club
“Excellent resource, I bought the accompanying music CD direct from Cat McGill’s website and it’s just great. Really uplifting, engaging, thoughtful and sometimes funny songs. My son loves it. Excellent communication, valuable addition to my reading material/life and great to have a dance to the songs that accompany book.”
