About the Book

Lifelong friends - both adoptees - decided they would take a chance and search for their birth parents using online DNA kits and social media. It turns out, that was the easy part. What happened over the next five years was much more difficult - trying to forge relationships with a multitude of related strangers while navigating decades of invisible and unexpected emotional land mines. This is what they found. Whether you're connected with adoption or not, "Found" is an incredible, unique human interest story that sends readers on a roller coaster of emotions regarding building relationships, family, friendship, pluses and pitfalls of online DNA searching and social media, parenthood, what makes a family, and much more. Written in an easy, friend-to-friend style, "Found" is an honest, raw, insightful and powerful look into the authors' hearts and minds. The book also includes several additional short stories of others that searched for lost family after hearing of the authors searches, and their own insight into their own experiences with reunion.

About the Author :
An award-winning designer, writer, author, creative director, branding guru, and web geek, Trish has experience in the corporate, television, and web arenas. An adopted person and adoptive mother, she lives with her husband and daughter in Fleming Island, Florida. Trish's first adoption-related work was published in Adoption Today magazine. Since then, she has co-authored three additiona adoption-related books with Kat LaMons. Sherri Craig-Evans is a talented high school teacher, musician, and photographer. She is mother to three sons and one teenage daughter. Sherri lives in Orlando, Florida, with her husband, Chad. Sherri is also an adopted person, daughter, sister, aunt, wife, Mama, Mimi, friend, cousin, co-worker, avid succulent grower, and mentor. Her home is always open and full with the loves of her life - musicians, divas, a barking gargoyle, and an extremely loudly meowing house panther. "Found: Two Adopted Friends Search for Their Birth Families" is Sherri's first book, but certainly not her last.

Review :
"An intriguing account of a search for biological kin...These stories make for a dramatic reading experience...Craig-Evans and Diggins engagingly reflect on many adoption-related issues, such as what creates a sense of connection, or why people choose to accept or reject a biological bond... on the whole, their book effectively shows the rewards and risks of the process." - Kirkus Reviews "Found" fills a need in the world of adoption that hasn't yet been filled, the immense value of fellow adoptee friendship. This is be a book that adoptees will be drawn to, as it's honest and authentic. - Sherrie Eldridge, adoption blogger, podcaster, and author of "Twenty Things Adopted Kids Wish Their Adoptive Parents Knew"
